The park was created in 1932, at the time of the Great Depression. But the boundaries were finalised much later. The park is a neighbour to a number of other natural sites, some of which are protected reserves. And so, while the park boundaries may be limited, the surrounding area is also rich in all the natural resources.<\/p>\n
