  • Shenandoah National Park Virginia
    A fact sheet from 2017 The Pew Charitable Trusts $191,000 is needed to repair one of the park’s two surviving Civilian Conservation Corps buildings, which date to the Great Depression. The Pew Charitable Trusts Shenandoah National Park Virginia Overview Over a million people enter Shenandoah National Park’s gates each year, most taking the Skyline Drive to vantage points along 105 miles of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The 200,000-acre park tracks the spine of the mountains in the northwestern corner of Virginia. From pullouts or granite peaks accessed by more than a dozen hiking trails, visitors have spectacular views of the state’s Piedmont region and Shenandoah Valley—particularly during peak fall foliage. Shenandoah is an early example of environmental planning and design in the National Park System. In the early 1900s, people living as far away as Washington built summer retreats here. When the park was established in 1935, more than 10,000 boys and young men in the Civilian Conservation Corps tore down most of these structures and nearly all homes built by early European settlers to create a more natural setting. They also carved trails—which now span over 500 miles—and built other park infrastructure. The park encompasses parts of eight counties and its restoration has allowed Congress to designate roughly 40 percent of it as wilderness areas. That wilderness draws scientists conducting ecological research ranging from bear behavior to the effects of acid rain, in addition to hikers. Unfortunately, Shenandoah faces a maintenance backlog of over $90 million, more than half of which is for road repairs.

  • AARP's Guide to Shenandoah National Park
    12/22/2020 Things to Know About Visiting Shenandoah National Park AARP's Guide to Shenandoah National Park Cruise scenic Skyline Drive, explore mountain trails and find serenity at this Virginia treasure by Ken Budd, AARP, Updated November 2, 2020 | Comments: 0 JON BILOUS/ALAMY STOCK PHOTO En español | Gushing waterfalls. Rolling mountains. Granite peaks. Lush valleys. Ninety-plus streams. Fog oceans that tumble over the Blue Ridge Mountains. Animals and wildflowers aplenty. With such an abundance of natural beauty, Shenandoah National Park (SNP) ranks as one of Virginia's wildest yet most serene destinations. Author Bill Bryson calls it “possibly the most wonderful national park I have ever been in." Native Americans wandered this area for millennia to hunt, gather food and collect materials for stone tools ("Shenandoah” is a Native American word that some historians believe means “daughter of the stars"). European hunters and trappers arrived in the 1700s, followed by settlers and entrepreneurs who launched farming, logging, milling and mining operations. In the early 1900s, inspired by the popularity of Western national parks, Virginia politicians and businessmen pushed for a park in the East, and President Calvin Coolidge signed legislation authorizing SNP in 1926. Roughly 465 families had to leave their homes after the state of Virginia acquired the land, but a few stubborn mountaineers refused to go, living the rest of their lives in the thick woods. In 1931, the federal highway department began building SNP's signature attraction, 105-mile Skyline Drive, which runs north to south through the length of the park. Two years later, the Civilian Conservation Corps — one of President Franklin D.

  • Fire Ecology in Shenan- Doah National Park
    Fire Ecology in Shenan­ doah National Park GENE WILHELM1 Slippery Rock State College Slippery Rock,PA 16057 INTRODUCTION SHENANDOAH National Park was established by an Act of Congress in 1935 to preserve a representative segment of the scenic Central Appalachian Mountains for the future benefit and enjoyment of the American people. The park is unique among most in the National Park System because of its very origin. Prior to park creation the mountainous region was practically decimated of all natural vegetation and animal life. Likewise the area in the early 1930's was "home" for over 3,000 mountain folk. From almost total degradation then, parkscape protection over a 35 -year period has permitted natural and human scars to heal, so that today the park exists in a more or less natural state. The chief scientific interest in the park is the ecological changes that have taken place since its establishment. Shenandoah National Park presents a rare opportunity for ecologists to study the dynamic processes of natural succession from extensive clearings to dense forests. The primary objective of this report is to indicate the signifi­ cant role that fire has played in the ecological changes to the park­ scape in time and space. Field data were collected during nine summers of residence in Shenandoah National Park from 1963 through 1971. Total field time approximated 28 months. Additional information was acquired 1 Associate Professor of Geography and Coordinator of Environmental Sciences, School of Social & Behavioral Sciences, Slippery Rock State College, Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania 16057. 445 GENE WILHELM from park personnel, former park inhabitants, and Alderman Library at the University of Virginia, Charlottesville.
