Here are some scanned photos taken by Andy Jordan in the early and mid '60s
 

Pictures from the old Johnsondale Lumber Mill - circa 1960
Johnsondale Mill Pond	Trees were cut and the logs brought to the Johnsondale Mill for processing. Camp had tours to the mill as part of the Forestry Merit Badge. These pictures were from 1960.	Johnsondale Mill	Johnsondale Drying Yard
Cut logs were brought in and floated to keep them wet prior to pulling into the mill to be sawn into lumber by the Sawyer. After milling the lumber was pulled into the drying yard to cure. Once dried they were shipped out to lumber yards.   =     =     =     =     =     =     =     =     =     =     =     =     =     =     =     =     =     =    Pictures from the 1965 Camp Whitsett Waterfront - notice the ropes instead of the current fence
