Veteran Acres Pond
Crystal Lake, Illinois, United States
The pond is near the neighborhood so it’s a two-lane entry/exit just east of Walkup Road. Extending up off 2nd street. Slow down when driving since there will be a sign saying “Oakwood Lodge”. It will show the arrows from going in and out.

View all photosIt seems like the higher the warmth, the more increase in chlorine levels. Probably due to the chlorine levels in this pond, the geese were swimming far from the chlorine content!
There was some green goop that resembled frog eggs! Also, the ice was breakable toward the edge of the pond.
The pond was icy, but not too icy since the ice broke easily.
So many ducks! There were a few people walking along the trails. It was a nice day out too!
