I hope that link comes out, I just dragged it in. It is in todays NY Times Journeys travel section, Campsites the Great Depression Created. Nice article with a beautiful green Element in the photo. It is good to know who we owe some of these campsites to.

Thank you for the post; we're headed right into that area after Labor Day with our E, to some of those very same parks.

Perhaps now would be a good time for us to bring back the C.C.C.?

I'll be darned -- the article highlights our two most frequent camping destinations: Shenandoah National Park's Big Meadows and Virginia's Douthat State Park.

Yet, that's not my green E.

Thanks for posting that

Psschmied, thanks for the info-that photo looks great bigger. I didn't know you could do that.

flsammyfn & hiker chick, it looks beautiful there. Wish I could see it. Maybe I'll take a cross country trip some day.

I'm headed to Lily Bay State Park on Moosehead Lake, for the first time camping there, tomorrow. It's a wee bit nearer to me than Virginia. I wonder if the CCC worked there.
