About Wah-Sha-She Park
Wah-Sha-She Park, formerly named Wah-Sha-She State Park, is on the shore of Hulah Lake in Osage County, Oklahoma. The 266-acre (108 ha) park offers recreational activities including boating, fishing, swimming and camping. Hunting is allowed in the adjacent 8,900-acre (3,600 ha) Wildlife Management Area. There is also a 2,000-acre (810 ha) Waterfowl Refuge where birdwatching is allowed. Regarding the name, one version has it coming from the Osage language, meaning "the water people." Another version claims the tribe called itself Wah-Zha-Zhe when French explorer Jacques Marquette encountered them in the 17th century.
