About Munising Self Guided Tour

This self-guided tour will allow you to go back in time and /or memory to days of the "Great Depression," when folks were hungry and jobs were few. Young men looked to the newly created Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) as an opportuntity to earn money to help feed their families. In creating the CCC, President Franklin D. Roosevelt saw it as a way to put such men to work and, at the same time, revitalize the country's ravaged natural resources. Much of the CCC work centered on National Forests like the Hiawatha. There are a number of CCC sites on the Munising Ranger District
