Get ready to dive into the awesome history of Oregon’s amazing State Parks! Back in the early 1920s, the idea of preserving Oregon’s natural beauty kicked off, with Sunset Bay State Park becoming one of the first to be established. Picture this: before all the trails and campsites, there was someone out there saying, “Let’s keep this magic alive!” And they did! Oregon’s State Parks quickly became havens for hikers, beachcombers, and nature lovers, all trying to enjoy the beauty and splendor of the Oregon Coast and Cascade Mountains. One of the biggest bashes in State Park history? The annual “Crater Lake Lighting Ceremony”, drawing thousands to witness the stunning display. Here’s a super cool fact: Oregon State Parks were the first in the US to manage a comprehensive underwater park system! Speaking of legends, Samuel Boardman State Scenic Corridor holds a special place in Oregon’s story - it’s a true gem. There is a record of a park ranger, Ranger Rick Powell, who hiked every trail, and catalogued the native wildlife! So, grab your hiking boots, pack your snacks, and get ready to explore the legacy of Oregon’s parks! They truly are a treasure.
