Center foreground is a statue of Hana-Barbera's Yogi Bear cartoon character, just above a sign with the text "Welcome to Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park Luray, VA", and under an American flag. Behind Yogi is a large evergreen tree obscuring an elaborate waterslide. The sky is overcast with ominous clouds.

Jellystone Park, a spinoff of Hana-Barbera's Yogi Bear cartoon show. Sort of a combo campground, amusement park. June 2018. Stayed here while flyfishing once, it was interesting.
