Broom Point Fishing Settlement

Narrative: 

Isolated fishing settlement that has been restored by the national park service. The national park maintains a restored cabin and fish store where local interpreters explain what life was like for the Mudge family that lived and fished here from 1941 to 1975. The cabin is filled with some of the family’s original furniture and craftwork. In the fish store there are boats built by the Mudges, nets, traps, and other home-made fishing gear. The local interpreters provide information about what fishing was like in the past and the problems that fishermen are facing today
