Since most of the Michigan CCC camps were in national and state forests, enrollees planted seedlings, fought forest fires, eradicated diseases - especially blister rust, which affects white pines - and built roads, trails, towers and firebreaks to aid in the prevention of forest fires.

In 1924, the National Forest Reservation Commission established a purchase unit in Alger, Schoolcraft, and Delta Counties, Michigan in 1928.
