It is a great privilege to visit this Park, and to travel over the old, original Indian trails which lead through the dense forest, along the river's bank, where tall virgin pines lift high their green branches. Thus shaded, the wild trailing vines and bushes grow and blossom in their unmolested beauty, perpetuating our gratitude to those primitive warriors who, long ago, cut these winding trails for the white man's pleasure to-day." |
