Ohio Guide Photographs
Description: Original description reads: "Beechwood trail. Mt. Airy forest rustic bridge on branch of West Fork Creek." Mt. Airy Forest had its origins in 1911 when the Cincinnati Park Board purchased 168 acres of land lying west of Colerain Avenue near the top of the Colerain hill, thus starting the first municipal reforestation project in the United States. It is Cincinnati's largest park, containing about 40 percent of the Park Board's total acreage. View on Ohio Memory.
