"Historic" stove on Sand Island. We found this cast iron stove in the dunes across from Cape Horn a few weeks ago. The park rangers said it might be from the family that originally owned the land, so it has historic value. Unfortunately it seems to have disappeared. If anyone knows what might have happened to it, let us know.

Will things work out for the best, or is the heart & soul of Bagby being gutted out for the sake of budget cutbacks? Let's do our part to protect the places we care about before something drastic happens.

The recent furore about people claiming offence on seeing naked people on beaches and elsewhere needs comment. Some of these offended people have demanded naturists be banned from

I would add, "Talk to the park rangers about the clothing-optional beach, ask them for an AANR beach card, and pack out your trash."

It's great that this letter was written by a non-nudist, who recognizes that we have a right to enjoy RR like anyone else. The new signs are making a difference! Thanks to the park rangers for installing them.

I just wanted to remind all family boaters that the eastern portion of Rooster Rock State Park is designated as a clothing-optional area. Although I choose to remain clothed, I believe in the rights of others not to be. It is the people who bring their kids and then call the nudists perverted or wor...
