MacKaye's own words: "The project is one for a series of recreational 
communities throughout the Appalachian chain of mountains from New England 
to Georgia, these to be connected by a walking trail. Its purpose is to 
establish a base for a more extensive and systematic development of 
outdoors community life. It is a project in housing and community 
architecture."

            If you are careful Saunterer, you would see that what that says 
doesn't necessarily conflict with anything I wrote.

             What you are seeing there is the sales pitch to a 1920's 
government. The wilderness and its function was piggybacked in...

        Would love to ask Baxter just how much he was influenced by MacKaye? 
Hmm, a wilderness park built right at the same time as MacKaye's push for 
regional planning "development"?
