Yes, there was a camp about 20 miles up the trail from Grand Marais. I worked in the camp in the summer of 1956 when it was owned by the US Forest Service and housed blister rust eradication crews. The camp was on the Brule river and consisted of a number of barracks, a mess hall and a blacksmith shop. There was a large railroad bell with a rope running into the mess hall. The cook would ring the bell to call the workers to eat. I have pictures of the camp but have not been able to paste them into this reply.
The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) camp in Wetumka, Oklahoma, was part of a New Deal program established in the 1930s to provide jobs and vocational training for young men during the Great Depression. By 1941, the CCC was still active, focusing on conservation projects such as reforestation, park development, and soil erosion control. Specific records about the Wetumka camp may be found in local archives or historical societies, as well as in federal documents detailing the CCC's activities during that period.

Happy Camp, CA is a town, there was a CCC camp nearby the town.
Rabideau CCC Camp was created in 1935.
The CC camp (Civilian Conservation Camp) and the CCC (Civilian Conservation Corps) are not the same, though they are related. The CCC was a New Deal program established in 1933 to provide jobs for young men during the Great Depression, focusing on environmental conservation projects. CC camps were the specific locations where CCC enrollees lived and worked. Essentially, CC camps were part of the broader CCC initiative.

I have a photo of 3 men standing on or beside the sign to that particular CCC camp plus a few others of camp life, my Father was there & it was probably during that time perios (1937>1938), problem is I don't have any info about his actual time in the CCC. If you will send me an email to shugbubba@bellsouth.net with CCC in the subject I will try to send you this pic.
