Newspapers of different communities already had their east coast – west coast connecting highways opposed. Petersburg, and other more northern west coast metropolitan areas wanted the existing Tamiami Trail to widen and improve. Never in Florida history had so many favored building a road, nor so many battled to prevent its construction, reported the Associated Press. Among some of the then-controlling Democratic officeholders and office-seekers contributed in part to Florida’s first Republican governor’s election since the days of Reconstruction.Īlligator Alley is the most controversial road ever built in Florida. The argument for and against, and the hard-feelings engendered. In the state election, some gubernatorial and other candidates seek to get on the opposition bandwagon for publicity purposes and attract the Dade County vote. The Alligator Alley argument set the city against the city. The AAA joined the then Miami Mayor, Robert King High, and the City of Miami to block the road, going to the Supreme Court. It’s director of public relations said the organization opposed toll roads and fought construction of the Alley since it was first conceived. The AAA plan to route its membership away from the road was announced in mid-August 1966. The AAA thought up the name of Alligator Alley to express supreme contempt for a road which it said was “designed with a flagrant disregard for essential safety that didn’t happen to where its proponents said it would go, and that charged a toll besides.” Before completing its re-engineering, Alligator Alley signed as State Road 84 it is now I-75, but it still has a concurrency with SR 84 designation was made concurrent with the I-75 designation, I-75 and SR 84 split again in Naples. Automobile drivers started paying $2.50 to cross, and now it is as high as $17.00 with a boat tow. It is still a toll road, but now a four-lane freeway. Although there is “no fuel” at this location, there are picnic areas with pavilions that make the Alligator Alley journey much more enjoyable.Īlligator Alley was initially built as a two-lane toll freeway connecting the two coasts of Florida and has become a very active recreation area connected to Interstate 75 as an east-west continuation of the highway. Can you turn around on Alligator Alley?Ī newly built recreation area along I-75(Alligator Alley), located about mile marker 35, provides viewing areas of the marshland that makes up Water Conservation Area 3 and is one of the only locations with restroom facilities, snack machines, and boat ramps. Sawgrass is the most abundant plant in the Everglades’ “River of Grass.” It grows 100 miles north and south from Lake Okeechobee to the Gulf of Mexico and 50 – 70 miles east to west.

As shadows converge towards the antisolar point, the spectre appears, often assuming an odd triangular shape due to perspective effects. Its ghostly figure, surrounded by shimmering rings and a glory, emerges when a mountaineer gazes downwards into mist with the low sun positioned behind them. In conclusion, the Brocken Spectre is a captivating atmospheric phenomenon that continues to intrigue and mesmerize observers. This ethereal display has been witnessed by mountaineers around the world, from the peaks of the Himalayas to the Scottish Highlands. The key ingredients for its manifestation are a low sun angle, mist or fog, and a suitable vantage point from which to observe the spectacle. While the Brocken Spectre is commonly associated with the Brocken Mountain, it can occur in other mountainous regions as well. This ever-changing form adds to the enigmatic nature of the phenomenon. As the climber moves or the observer's vantage point changes, the shape of the spectre can shift accordingly. Interestingly, the triangular shape that the spectre sometimes assumes is merely a perspective effect. The resulting rings of colors are a mesmerizing sight to behold. The glory itself is formed by diffraction and interference of light waves as they pass through these suspended particles. When sunlight interacts with water droplets or tiny ice crystals suspended in the mist, various optical effects occur. To fully appreciate the Brocken Spectre, it is important to understand its underlying mechanisms. However, in reality, the size of the spectre is not as grandiose as it may appear. This distortion can give the impression of an enormous apparition towering over the observer. The presence of the glory, coupled with the obscuring effect of the mist, often distorts familiar reference points that could otherwise be used to judge its size. One might wonder how such a seemingly gigantic spectre can be produced. It is similar to other atmospheric phenomena such as anti-crepuscular rays and cloud shadows. The glory is centered directly opposite the sun at the antisolar point, where all shadows converge. As the climber's shadow extends forward through the mist, it creates the shadowy figure that is commonly referred to as the "spectre." What adds to the mystique of this spectacle are the shimmering rings and glow surrounding the spectre, known as a glory. The Brocken Spectre materializes when a mountaineer gazes downwards into the mist from a ridge or peak, with the low sun positioned behind them. While initially unnerving, this optical phenomenon has captivated observers for centuries. Have you ever found yourself standing on a high ridge, surrounded by mist, only to witness a ghostly figure emerge before your eyes? This ethereal apparition, known as the "Spectre of the Brocken," derives its name from the frequent sightings reported on the Brocken, the highest peak of Germany's Harz Mountains.

Plaster of Paris has fire resistance quality and its material is ideal for heat insulation. In extreme conditions, it also acts as an oxidizing agent. Plaster of Paris is non-flammable as well as non-combustible as it has a low chemical reactivity. There are two main properties of Plaster of Paris: The Plaster of Paris name has been used since ancient times because of the abundant preparation of Gypsum found near Paris.
