NORTH CAROLINA
HAS NEW ROADS
AND ATTRACTIONS

New motor routes make North
Cardinals spring and summer
vaeationlands, including resorts
and parks in the highest noun
tain in Eastern America and
along $50 miles of coastline, more
accessible than ever before.
Statewide in Variety Vacation
land, there are major improve
ments on highways, while new
tourist attractions are found from
the Great Smoky and Blue Ridge
Mountains to the coast which was
the site of the first English settle
ment in America and is now the
home of Americas first national
seashore park.
In the mountains the summer
travel season begins in April,
when the spring flower parade
moves up the slopes of the South
ern Appalachians to mile-high
mountain peaks. The beach season
extends from April until late
Autumn, with fishing enjoyed
every month in the year and par
ticularly fine from early spring
through October. A network of
good highways traverses the
mountains, while all of North
Cardinals beach resorts are aces
sible by paved highways and free
bridges or ferries connecting with
U. S. II.
New within the past year are a
campground in the Great Smoky
Mountains National Park, a mu-
scum at Cape Hatteras and one
in the 18th Century Village of
Old Salem, a paved road to the
top of 6,286 foot Roam Mountain,
and restaurant on Mount Nit
chell-highest peak in Eastern
America. New four-lane links are
in use on U. S. Highway 70 up
the Blue Ridge Divide and on U.
S. 10 between Asheville and the
Great Smokes, and brand new
roads give new access to Fontana
Lake and Joyce Kilmer National
Forest. Free ferry service has
been increased to Hatteras Island
in the Cape Hatteras National
Seashore Recreational area, and
new hiking trails and scenic over
looks make the beauty of Linville
Falls on the Blue Ridge Parkway
accessible to sightseers.
Opening this summer are a
Minerals Museum on the Blue
Ridge Parkway and additional
ocean and sound fishing piers, and
new girls camp in the mountain
vacationlands known as the sum-
mer camp capital of the South
east.
New and expanded motor courts
and inns are ready to serve vaca-
TONERS from coast to mountains.
Three big outdoor historical
dramas are reopening in mountain
