The second trail we went on told all about fire fighting and forest fires. This lesson turned out to be timely with the fires going on around Los Angeles.
This Huey saw action in the Vietnam War and then served North Carolina for several decades. Now it sits in the park for kids to explore. The kids played forest fire for a long time.
We will definitely be going back to this park. We didn't get to go on the trails about soil erosion, water and soil and other topics that I can't remember. There were also lovely wooded picnic areas.

You know how much I love trees and forests. I just can't wait to go to this park with you! Love, Grandma
ReplyDeleteYou all must have had a blast! The photos are very nice.
ReplyDeleteGood job on the budget shopping!
We loved this park as well. If you call the rangers, they will do a program for you. We set one up for 4 families and the kids explored the creek and things that lived there. They did a great job!
ReplyDeleteSo glad y'all are having fun!

How lovely! I love hiking in places like that! I did e-mail you about the behind the scenes tour when you first mentioned it! =) That sounds incredible!

Oh I know what else I wanted to say. When I was at Chincoteague I got a new book bag to take to the tourist sites to carry my lunch, water, pamphlets, etc. It has the major trees and leaves on it. Hopefully we can get past identifying oaks and maples!
