Wickham Park
3commentsIt's a public park with all that entails. Be discreet, stay out of peoples way and stay out of the bathrooms. It used to be a real hot spot, but the police and park officials made a big push to get rid of the car cruisers. After a few years, it's rebounding now for those willing to be patient and willing to be careful and to keep their activities well hidden in the woods away from the main lakes and gathering areas of the park.

Etiquette
Use your common sense,be discreet. If it doesn't seem right, then move along. Be patient and see what most folks do. Plan to go for a walk on the trails and don't just loiter in your car.
Nudity: Yes / If you are careful enough you can be completely naked there, but usually folks wear clothes that offer easy access when necessary.
Safety
Folks who don't know when to quit. Being pushy or not being discreet is the fastest way to be avoided. Cops drive through once or twice a day but usually don't bother anyone unless they give them a reason to stop. Be discreet and don't give them a reason to stop.

Have had a few very interesting hook-ups recently. As noted, just be wise and careful. Do see unmarked cars checking out the trails.
