For anyone thinking of observing closer to Rochester, I was out and looked at Root River park and Keller WMA today. Root River looks to be a little better. Keller is somewhat wet, so you will get some muddy clay on you to take home. Root River will also have some of the wet clay, but you can set up in the grass and avoid the wet dirt.
Root River does have a Road Closed sign at the beginning. Not sure how closed it is. There are some ruts in the road, not a big as the ones when we started going out there early last year. There was the closed sign there, but there was a car heading in when I got there, so I went ahead and followed it. When I got to the parking lot, I was the 9th car there! Most cars I've ever seen there, I think. 🙂 So much for road closed. Anyway, road closed so go in at your own risk. Maybe they have taken the sign down. 🙂
