Ah, the Saint Hannes cross, or sankthanskors in Sweden, or hannunvaakuna in Finland. It's not so much related to campgrounds, but to mark sightseeing spots in general.

Does anyone what the "international symbol dictionary" Susan Kare used was?

The same sign is used in Finland. I was puzzled why Apple computers used it but I thought it was just a coincidence...!

Never used MacDraw, but I remember installing and using ClarisWorks in middle/high school, I never did actual programming at that age, but I loved playing around with the Mac's word processing, drawing, painting programs, making little art layouts, outlines for class notes, stuff that that.
