	Gippsland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		West Gippsland extends from the southeastern limits of metropolitan Melbourne and Western Port Bay in the west to the Latrobe Valley in the east, and is bounded by the Strzelecki Ranges to the south and the Mount Baw Baw Plateau in the Great Dividing Range to the north.
		Apart from gorges and southern slopes, this park is in a rain-shadow area forming the southern border of the Monaro Tableland.
		Errinundra National Park is much wetter - inaccessible from June to October in most years - and features some of the most ancient forests in Australia, a matter of controversy as employment in the remote areas east of the Snowy is mainly dependent upon timber milling.

		Adjacent to the park is Livingston County Park.

	The Bedrock Geology of Mount Battie, Camden, Maine
		Mount Battie is a rounded, rocky knob that juts from the south end of the Camden Hills (Figure 2).
		The reason that Mount Battie is such a prominent knob is that the quartzite is more resistant to erosion than the surrounding rocks.
		To the north and east, starting about at the parking area at the summit, the Battie Quartzite is a layered rock, with layers of conglomerate alternating with layers of quartzite.

	Mount Rainier National Park: Wonderland:An Administrative History (Chapter 9) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		The passage is worth quoting because it demonstrates how well the NPS director was able to see through the eyes of all his collaborators in the private sector, including the gentlemen in the Rainier National Park Company.
		From later statements it is evident that the Cooperative Campers maintained at least one camp in the park each season at Summerland, and probably the NPS chose to tolerate the group as long as it limited its activities to the east side of the park (away from the RNPC's hotels and camps).
		Cammerer insisted that for the remainder of the season the park staff was to refuse official permission for use of the camp to all unlisted members, and it would keep a record of all violators.

	Utah - Goblin Valley State Park
		Few people visit Goblin Valley State Park, which is a pity since the rock formations are every bit as dramatic as the more famous National Parks further south, although on a much smaller scale.
		The Park: There are supposed to be several trails passing through the Park although they are not obvious and it is possible to walk almost anywhere.
		Wilderness: The land west of the park is part of the San Rafael Swell and is like much of south Utah as it is remote but beautiful, and traversed only by a few dirt tracks; 4WD vehicles are recommended.

		Both parks have similar cautionary tales about the ill fortune that befalls those who illegally remove samples, with a collection of letters sent from remorseful visitors.

	Mount Philo
		Mount Philo lost countless trees; some split down the middle from the weight of heavy ice on their branches, and others eventually needed to be logged because they had experienced excessive damage during the storm.
		And for every view, there was at least one picnic bench and grille; and for every picnic bench and grille there was a space in the new (since the ice storm in '98) parking lot at the center of the summit.
		A basketball hoop, a brown chalet, a grille, a lake, a concrete lookout, a parking space, a mountain, 15 more parking spaces, a wedding, a soda machine, a vista, a view.
