Rock Harbor Vistor Center picture

Post by johnhens »

If anyone has a picture of the entranceway to the RH vistor center, it would be a big help if you could post it.
I am looking for a picture that would show the doorway into the VC.
Thanks
John

Thanks again

You have me wondering what you are up to!

I also found this picture of Windigo.

I was a bit surprised to see the Visitor center down by the water. How long has the new visitor center been up on the hill?

I hope someone else's memory is better than mine. I think the "new" vistor center has been there for at least 11 years, maybe longer.
