History

The Civilian Conservation Corps built the park and its log structures in 1935. In 2007, the park suffered severe flooding which destroyed bridges along the Willapa Hills Trail[2] as well as the park's main entrance.[3] Park-goers began using an alternate entrance to the park in May 2008.[4]

Activities and amenities

The park offers camping, hiking trails, fishing, and swimming.[2]

gollark: <@288035900980461579> Could you photograph the question or something? It does definitely look like you need 16.5 moles O2 for 3 moles Fe2O3, so the question is probably asking something else?
gollark: 2Fe2O3 is 2 moles Fe2O3, 11O2 is 11 moles O2.
gollark: The important part is how many O2s per Fe2O3 you need.
gollark: It probably did just mean 3 moles of Fe2O3, not 3 times 2 times Fe2O3.
gollark: <@288035900980461579> Did the question just ask for 3 moles of Fe2O3, or 3 of "2Fe2O3" somehow?
