I did not realize that was not part of the national park. That sounds like great news. Thanks Ruth!

Ruth,
THanks for the great news. I would have hated to see this beautiful land developed.

While that is absolutely good news, the land that Maho Bay campgrounds is on is listed for sale. It would be a blessing to see that land also preserved for future generations.

Those Trust for Public Land folks do great work.
The Nature Conservancy (who we donate tax deductible dollars to) does similar work.
Their mission is to preserve the plants, animals and natural communities that represent the diversity of life on Earth by protecting or purchasing the lands and waters they need to survive.
