Some 30 years ago I talked with 3 men that had been in a CCC camp. When things wound down and they prepared to close the camp, the tools, shovels, axes, spades, hoes, pitch forks, and what all were gathered up. One morning one of the directors had them loaded into a truck, 4 of the older guys were loaded into another truck and they went into the hills. By noon they were back, and the story soon spread that the tools were buried in a pit then covered. It seems that when the camps were first being closed, the tools were dispersed to the men, and the local hardware stores complained bitterly that they couldn't sell another shovel for 5 years. Heard this same story on the web a few years ago too. I have seen one shovel, and one scoop shovel stamped CCC, thats it. I did hear of someone digging up some axe heads with the stamping recently. Good luck in your quest.
