Be part of Big Cypress history! We're excited to announce the renaming of our campsites, previously known as 7-Mile, 10-Mile, 13-Mile and 17-Mile Camps, in Big Cypress National Preserve. Since the southern terminus of the FNST was relocated years ago, these campsites are no longer located at their namesake mile points, leading to confusion and safety concerns for hikers. The National Park Service (NPS) and the US Forest Service (USFS) have permitted us to rename these sites, and we want your help to choose the best names!
The top three names will be presented to the National Park Service (NPS) and each winner will receive an exclusive FTA Prize Pack!
Contest Details:
Submission Deadline: August 16th, 2024
How to Submit: Use the Google Form provided at floridatrail.org/bigcypresscamp
Criteria: Names should reflect the natural beauty, history, or unique features of Big Cypress. Keep it brief (3 words or less) and avoid using people's names.
Join us in this exciting opportunity to leave your mark on Big Cypress National Preserve. Let's make these campsites memorable together!
