It's a wildlife refuge where the public is allowed. The overlook platform overlooks a small "lake" (mudflats in the dry season), which has thousands of waterfowl and other wild birds.
Much of the area has been cleared of underbrush.
Crowd: Mid 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's, and older men. About 2 years ago a male/female couple have come in a few times to put on a show and let men play.

  • Do guys walk out to the landing by the water, or just hang out in their cars? I drove by the other day and didn't know if I should stop or not.

  • Hey men,

    The StarTribune published an article on June 12, 2007 called �Policing the Shadows�.

    The article, written by Sarah Lemagie, seems to have been inspired by six arrests made on May 29th at two public parking lots on the stretch of Black Dog Road that runs through the Minnesota Valley national Wildlife Refuge. A number of different cruising spots were mentioned.

    It seems the public and the police have their eyes peeled for cruising, so cruise with caution in these parts. Take care of yourselves and each other, and keep cruisein�!

  • This was a good spot. Was usually good for some noon time fun, but they have cut down more of the trees and bushes. Is anyone still going here. Looking for some fun this afternoon.
