The park, which includes the headwaters of the Middle Saluda River, is, with Caesars Head State Park, administered by the state Department of Parks, Recreation, and Tourism as part of the Mountain Bridge Wilderness. ==History== From 1840 to 1848, the self-taught mountain road builder Solomon Jones (1802-1899) cut a toll road from Caesars Head, South Carolina, to Cedar Mountain, North Carolina. Because Jones had no formal training, local legend claimed he had blazed the trail with a hatchet while following the lead of a sow.〔 Carl Cox, ''Solomon Jones: The Roadbuilder'' (Easley, SC: privately published, 1963), 17-18, 34.〕 The unpaved Jones Gap Road (largely abandoned by 1910) was the only direct route between Greenville County and Transylvania County, North Carolina, until in the 1930s an alternate route was chosen for the Geer Highway (U. S. Route 276).〔''Greenville News, '' October 22, 1976; Bob Satterwhite, “South Carolina’s Jones Gap and Caesars Head State Park,” ''Blue Ridge Outdoors'' (March 1994), 15.〕 In the early 1950s, Henry Ware, who had in his youth traveled through the Gap in a wagon, encouraged his cousin, businessman E. Ervin Dargan to buy 2,000 acres of Jones Gap land from the Saluda Land and Lumber Company. In 1976, fearing the destructive potential of real estate development and the increase of motorized vehicles traveling the old road, the men both sold and donated their land to the state for use as a park.〔''Greenville News, '' January 30, 1977, 1E, 3E.〕 During the same period, Greenville attorney Thomas Wyche conceived the idea of a Mountain Bridge Wilderness; and in 1973, he organized the Naturaland Trust to secure and protect the nearly of privately owned mountain lands between the Table Rock and Poinsett watersheds, including Jones Gap. In 1978, the state began to acquire properties, much of it with money granted from the federal Land and Water Conservation Fund.〔Jim Tharpe, “Mountain Bridge,” ''Greenville News,'' June 20, 1982, 1D, 10D; Thomas Wyche, ''South Carolina’s Mountain Wilderness'' (Englewood, Colorado: Westcliffe Publishers, 1993), 23.〕 The park officially opened in January 1989.〔''Greenville News,'' September 29, 1989, 8.〕 Smaller tracts in Jones Gap continued to be purchased by Naturaland Trust and The Nature Conservancy into the 21st century.〔''Greenville News,'' July 24, 2011, June 23, 2012.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jones Gap State Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
