Section 821 - Dedication of lands in Cameron and Clinton Counties

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania hereby dedicates to the public, for use as a park and pleasure-ground for the benefit and enjoyment of the people, all that area of land extending in length from the western city line of Lock Haven, in Clinton County, to the eastern borough line of Emporium, in the county of Cameron, and along the course of the western branch of the Susquehanna River, and its tributary, Sinnemahoning Creek, in Clinton and Cameron Counties, an estimated distance of seventy-five miles, and, in width, from mountain rim to mountain rim across the valley.

The said park shall be called and known as the "Bucktail State Park," in commemoration of the Bucktail Regiment which embarked from Driftwood, in Cameron County, in April, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-one, upon rafts of their own construction to hasten their arrival at the imperiled State capital.
