September 27, 2015 - Supplemental - Cumberland Mountain State Park

4:10PM. This morning's post was brought to you from Cumberland Mountain State Park. This area was heavily worked in through several of Roosevelt's programs, but in particular, the CCC did work in this park. In fact, the largest masonry structure built by the CCC is the Byrd Creek Dam at the center of the park. It really is something to see. 

This weekend my family hiked and spent the night in one of the cabins there at the park. We had a close look at the dam and visited the CCC Museum located next to the park restaurant. It was a great time and I would recommend seeing it. Below are some of my photos.
