GDG- A battle over sacred ground

[The Mills]

Thanks for that information.  

Is there plans to restore BRT as well?  It seems by looking at pictures that BRT has become very overgrown as well, but is there plans to cut back BRT to the historic look?

Thanks
Andy

These lines also run to the two historic homes (Slyder and Bushman) southwest of the Den. The park service is removing additional trees right now in this area, which will uncover more of the lines, and provide even better sightlines.  As far as the non-historic bathrooms, they will stay for now. There is a longer-term plan on place to rehabilitate the LRT area to help with parking, arrest erosion, and increase interpretation, and I would not be surprised to hear that the bathrooms would be moved up there some day. As another poster has stated, that will not happen on the current (Dr. Latshcar) watch.
