Hello ALL from a Connecticut Neighbor :-)

Can anyone point me to State Park Laws / Regulations...

Is the great swamp fight of 1675 accessable or is that labeled as a National Historic Site... ??

Thank you for any help on RI Rules / Laws...

The swamp fight area is off limits because they are trying to develop it and the Indians are saying its a burial ground...There are lots of cairns out there..Its also a huge area..Mostly swamps..
And dozens of no trespassing signs.
To bad i would love to get in there..

Great Swamp Massacre took place during the king philip war. December 19th 1675 the colonial militia attacked and massacred the narragansett indians fearing an indian attack. its late or i'd type the whole thing out but there is a great history written. i would not want any relics, to this day there are reports of indians in war regalia charging people and some of them being hunters shooting and thinking they killed someone only for no body to be found. It is sacred burial grounds. If you go just to walk around, be out of the woods before dark. the hairs on your neck will thank you, and its really easy to get lost.
