ABOUT THIS BLOG

Campfire Tales is a community-oriented blog, documenting the intersection between our experiences in National Parks, and the expression of those experiences through creative arts. The authors (the Camp Host and guest Camp Hosts) will present stories and resources, both of the National Parks and those who visit them (exploring how we shape our parks and our parks shape us).
