I'm Patrick Boyle county parks I got into the county park system do dumb luck and timing I just happened to graduate from h. Issue at the same time I had been working seasonally for county parks and a full time job opened up out of some still 8 swimmers the way it is this wonderful campground out on Highway 36 out in the old growth redwoods it's really unique it's probably the closest a state park experience that you're going to get for a little lowly county park the locals love it about 90 percent of our business comes from this area right here and then we're written up as a 5 star rating in a German tour guides we get a lot of European tourists come September October the river meanders around the park so the park is almost like a little peninsula in the campground and so there's a river access from almost every single campsite out along the way I think we make swimmers a light so special in the way a campground is that we operate a campground not a cramped ground you get space with your campsite you're not packed right on top of your neighbor you have some elbow room campsites are somewhat large so they do you accommodate me know my small family groupings very easily begin an a.w.a. Are probably neck and neck for experience begins just gorgeous to go out and walk out on the on the on the surf out there and between the. Lagoon in the ocean you get some stellar views of back towards you know up the coast there and then just the burning out of big lagoon can be very very calm and soothing a way parks great you get lots of sun very low crowds a lot of times and again the campsites in a way are very large and accommodating in the wildflowers are gorgeous on the meadows just full of them in the spring. Almost all our county parks are all dry camping we don't have any sort of cups in any of the campsites swimmer's the light has electric and water hookups for trailers or 6 of those operate on a 1st come 1st serve basis big lagoon we're in the process of adding one more electric and water site there they go again but our camping is pretty primitive We have a firing a campsite a camp and a picnic table and you could go freshwater I always like to think of fresh water as our little our wonderful little city park in the county it's a nice beautiful mode lawn area with great picnic grounds lots of bouncy houses out there fantastic for kids birthday parties. Summer Slayton Pamplin Grove we've been seeing turkeys they're making a great comeback out here in the park we haven't seen turkeys out in the park in 24 years or so you do have to be careful of bears and things of big again on occasion we do get a bear running through we always recommend securing your trash and garbage every night take your garbage out to the dumpster every night and drop it off so you don't have an want to visitors stealing your your Oreo cookies and everything it's a real drag when all your food disappears and morning.

The history of blogging James in the me hundreds but it was brought on by the discovery of gold and that be it wasn't humble county that made it happen after this government gold in Sacramento and then later on American River and the Trinity River San Francisco. Became the city with folks who would supply the prospectors with all they needed or thought they needed the population of the city by the bay exploded from 2849 to over 51000 just 60 years later lumber was needed to build the homes the stores the sidewalks and even the materials needed in the goldfields for things like sluice boxes as an example lumber went from $50.00 a 1000 board feet to $500.00 in just one year this was a backdrop for a burgeoning industry that was to change Pember and how it would be harvested and milled just a scant 300 miles to the north but 854 there were 9 Mills on humble Bay And although Eureka was just 3 years old Eureka produced more lumber than any other city or town in the Pacific Northwest by 859 just another 5 years later the area around humble Bay was the most extensively lumber district in California within 30 years said 888 the North Coast had 400 mills cutting some of the largest trees in the world simply stated Eureka and the surrounding communities are here because the redwood trees where here the ornate Victorian homes were built by people associated with the timber industry the banks railroads and ships in the area were owned by people in the timber industry the city's political leaders were also the timber barons the population from the most meagerly employed to the most well refined where here because of timber the cutting moving and milling of these huge trees was also a new challenge as the demand for wood was skyrocketing and obviously before some of today's abilities existed the timber industry helped to facilitate the development of technology also the primary motivator was to keep up with demand that was regional they had to figure out how to cut down the trees and then get them to the mill more quickly when the industry began the redwoods were cut by 2 men and their axes this autumn would take up to one week. Double edged axes were the 1st development and longer handles were employed to get more leverage to dig in cut deeper the cross-cut saw was lengthened considerably during this time with handles at both ends as early as 875 a steam powered portable saw was attempted to be used but not with much success as also a 200 lb drag saw that was invented in Eureka during this time a lighter model was developed later on that helped a certain extent another trying situation was the fact that getting a downed trees to market was problematic even if just sectioned up a 400 foot tree it's still a huge endeavor as some of these monsters measured over 30 feet in diameter originally logs were moved by using screw jacks that would be floated or towed in nearby rivers or creeks and delivered to the mills horses and oxen polled logs longer distances on what is referred to as a skid road a skid row to simply a series of smaller trees laid down to form a road of trees to drag the larger and heavier trees along so it would have less friction that means the load is easier to move for the oxen or horses or mechanical devices being used to accomplish the job logging railroads primitive at 1st begin hauling logs to the mills these are augment it with the construction of the 1st railroads in the state simultaneous to these challenges for the industry face was the actual cutting of the redwoods at the sawmills when the industry was just forming here a single blade moved up and down by a crank then a longer Sasol was used followed by other saws it cut at the same time but saws to cut Redwood had to be made strong and more durable than in other areas due to the amount of work that they are being called on to do. Fast circular saws were also invented locally to replace a reciprocating saw a set tended to break and snap at the pressures they were put under blade sizes increased during this time from a 12 inch blade eventually to a $72.00 and circular saw then came the double circular saws that were replaced by 3rd saws and forth saws that would work in tandem to cut an even larger log. Finally the 1st bandsaw was developed to replace and compliment those circular saws However the most significant invention in the timber industry was the steam donkey in $882.00 this adaptation of steam power was designed to move large logs and was invented by John Doe barrow of Boulder and Carson Lumber Company in Eureka is inventiveness wasn't just limited to the steam donkey John Doe bere had a series of inventions beginning with a circular saw to cut lumber an 860 he developed a telling machine in 1963 he also created a steam powered portable felling him bucking saw an 875 as well as an improved vertical spall donkey 8 years later he also had another option with a steam donkey that was mounted on a logging locomotive Waldo bears a one who was 1st thought of as an inventor of the tools to use in harvesting the redwood trees but any other local folks in the logging industry were equally as creative to give a sense on how the size of these giants were used early local towns often constructed dance floors on a single tree stump you can also find other areas where the size of the timber is mind numbing by the standards of today just as a last point of trivia are these lesser known facts did you know Redwood has been used to rebuild San Francisco 7 times after fires Redwood was also used as the long pilings in building the Golden Gate Bridge as well.
