In addition to beautiful scenery, the attractions at Guernsey State Park include a number of buildings constructed by the CCC (Civilian Conservation Corps) during the Depression. This statue outside the museum celebrates the men who turned stone and mortar into the fanciful buildings, including one called the Castle, that are considered the finest example of CCC work in the Rocky Mountain region.
Thank you for posting this statue and a bit of history about the CCC work. It is a great way for me to 'travel' to the Rocky Mountains.
