Early Trail Photos

Steve Jones took photos in the 1980s to 1990s documenting the clearing and paving of the Little Miami State Park trail. He was the first Park volunteer, using the van he donated to the park as a traveling visitor center, as well as crafting signs and documenting and preserving trail artifacts.
