Motorways
"Motorways" was the term given to
the one-way, low standard truck trails constructed within the park primarily for
fire protection. Emergency Conservation Work crews during 1933 accomplished
construction of thirty-two miles of new trail and maintenance work on eighty-two
miles of old motorways. Truck trails constructed during the 1933-34 seasons were
those at Sun Creek, Crater Peak, Wineglass, Timber Cone Crater, and Bear Creek;
the Union Peak Loop; and trails between Lost Creek Ranger Station and Vidae
Creek Falls and between Castle Creek and The Watchman.
