Vermont, the Green Mountain State, boasts a rich tapestry of national park history, much like the old-growth forests that once dominated the landscape! Believe it or not, back in the day, the push for park creation sometimes faced the resistance of…drumroll please…lumber barons! Yep, those very folks who harvested the trees! Early conservationists battled to protect Vermont’s stunning natural beauty, eventually leading to the establishment of protected areas. The most popular event in the history of Vermont National Parks was the creation of the Appalachian Trail. It brought the world together, and a new appreciation for nature and the outdoors. One particularly interesting historical fact? During the development of the Appalachian Trail in the 1930s, the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) played a huge role, building trails and infrastructure. One of the most famous National Parks in Vermont is the Green Mountain National Forest. A legend on the trails? Well, how about Benton MacKaye, the visionary who first conceived the Appalachian Trail’s idea?!
