    Default Rainbow Springs Campground

    I was going through some of the galleries tonight and could only find 4 pictures of Rainbow Springs Campground.

    I'd like to setup a section of a website to commemorate this landmark of the past.

    Does anyone have any pictures that they'd like to donate?

    You can upload directly here:

    http://thru-hike.com/rsc

    You don't have to login to upload pictures.

    Thanks!

    Hi Slogger, thanks for the quick reply.

    I have setup a temporary location here:

    http://thru-hike.com/rsc

    You can upload your images along with comments, etc.

    I just set this up and haven't tested as yet, so if you wouldn't mind being the guinea pig...or you can email to [email protected]

    Thanks,

    I have two photos of the Yurt which I tried to upload but not sure if successful. I'll e-mail them to you. They're from someone else's website.

    Can't do much here at work but will make the attempt to upload them tonight. Will probably e-mail them to you as well.

    Thanks, we need more.

    I'd like to see:

    1. Jenny in her typical spot with the cloud of cig smoke all about her
    2. The washhouse with all of the signs taped everywhere with the do's and don'ts
    3. The bunkhouse in all it's splendor.
    4. Some of the areas down by the river.

    Default Rainbow Springs Campground

    Haven't been on Whiteblaze for sometime now. But got an email today about
    this thread. Unfortunately, the bunkhouse, and cabins have been torched,
    wormy chestnut and all. The trees have all been cut down and it's all being
    bulldozed flat. It is divided into 7 narrow lots of less than an acre each, down
    by the river, and they are asking a starting price of $225,000 each. I saw that
    Doctari said he cried, trust me,when ever we go by I cry too. But lots of good memories and friends are still with us. I heard they sold the yurt, but
    don't know that for sure.
