Pokagon State Park is located in northeastern Indiana close to the village of Fremont and 5 miles (8 km) north of Angola.
Pokagon State Park is located in northeastern Indiana close to the village of Fremont and 5 miles (8 km) north of Angola. It was named for the 19th-century Potawatomi chief, Leopold Pokagon, and his widely known son, Simon Pokagon, at Richard Lieber's suggention. The 1,260-acre (4.9 km²) park has an inn, camping facilities, and a staff of full-time naturalists. The Wisconsin Glacier, the last of the Ice Age’s four glaciers that covered Indiana, created the rolling terrain found in Pokagon. Glaciation’s influence can be seen in many of the features of the park, including Lake Londiaw (a kettle lake), Hell's Point (a kame), and various glacial erratics. Angola is a city in Pleasant Township, Steuben County, Indiana, United States. The population was 8,612 at the 2010 census. The city is the county seat of Steuben County. Angola was founded by Thomas Gale and Cornelius Gilmore. Angola is home to Trine University. The town is served by I-69 and the Indiana Toll Road (I-80 and I-90). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pokagon_State_Park en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angola,_Indiana en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_...
