BOY SCOUT PARK TRAIL rs
DEDICATED AT YELLOWSTONE

On Thursday, August ri, with
appropriate ceremonies, the new
Eagle Scout trail in Yellowstone
National park was dedicated. Con-
struction of this trail was recently
completed by 80 Eagle Scouts from
Montana, Idaho Washington and
Oregon.
The simple ~dedicatory services
were in recognition of this applica-
ton of scout craft in a new way to
a great national project-develop-
ment of the national parks. The
present experimental trail con-
struotion will be followed, it is ex-
pected, by further trail making in
the Yellowstone, and by trail build
ing by Boy Scouts in other national
parks.
The project originated in the
mind of Il. G. Maclay, president of
the Scout council of Great Falls.
He obtained authority for the trail
building from Stephen Il. Mather,
director of the national park SER
vice.
