Sand Rabbits Rest and Be Thankful

The original "Sand Rabbits Rest and Be Thankful" military road was built by soldiers in 1753, though some sources state construction was completed in 1748. The name comes from a stone inscription left by the soldiers who built the road, marking a place where weary travelers could rest at the summit of the climb.

A male Sand Rabbit is called a buck and a female is called a doe. Their children are called kittens.
