    Chapter Seven New Faces, Changing Values Smokejumper Jeanine Faulkner (right), Lolo National Forest, 2000. (USDA Forest Service) 162 The Geatest Good S THE FOREST SERVICE GREW IN SIZE AND RESPONSIBILITY DURING THE 1950S AND 1960S, IT ACHIEVED THE HEIGHT OF ITS POPULARITY, EVEN AS ITS POLICIES BEGAN TO COME UNDER FIRE AND LEGISLATION FORCED CHANGES IN ITS OPERATIONS. SOME OF THE AGENCY’S DIFFICULTIES IN THE DECADES THAT FOLLOWED WERE DUE TO THE MAKEUP OF ITS PERSONNEL. NEW ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS AND PROCEDURES REQUIRED ADDING NONFORESTRY SCIENTISTSA AND EXPERTS TO THE PLANNING TEAMS. WOMEN, LONG RELEGATED TO OFFICE WORK OR UNPAID SUPPORT POSITIONS SINCE THE AGENCY’S FOUNDING IN 1905, FOUGHT FOR AND WON THE RIGHT TO WORK IN FIELD POSITIONS. AFRICAN AMERICANS, NATIVE AMERICANS, AND HISPANICS SOON JOINED THEM IN MOVING INTO THOSE POSITIONS AND UP THE LADDER INTO ADMINISTRATIVE JOBS. It’s a Family Affair In the early years of the Forest Service, rangers’ wives provided a convenient and much- needed source of free labor on understaffed and underfunded ranger districts. Wives sorted and date-stamped the mail, prepared correspondence and reports, and operated switchboards. They also made and delivered meals to fire fighters and sometimes stayed to help fight. In one extreme example of familial dedication to the agency, Harriet Eveleth, a ranger’s wife, purportedly left her three small children behind during the Big Blowup of 1910 and rode twenty miles on horseback from Monarch to Neihart, Montana, to take charge of a hundred men fighting a fire, not knowing whether the fire would jump the ravine and claim her home and family.

  • The Forest Service Ranger: Beloved Icon Or Pathway to Compliance? Cindy C
    The Forest Service Ranger: Beloved Icon or Pathway to Compliance? Cindy C. Chojnacky There is a forest ranger we love and might want to be. This ranger lives in the woods in a rustic wood cabin, wears a badge with a pine tree superim- posed on a shield, and takes care of the land. When visiting the Sawtooth National Forest, Pole Creek Ranger Sta- tion, I was inspired by the historic site dedicated to one such ranger, Bill Horton. Working at Pole Creek from 1908 to 1929 during the summer, Horton shod and packed horses, installed range and telephone lines, pa- trolled boundaries, checked grazing allotments, patrolled for and put out small fires, and even worked on the alignment for what is now State High- way 75 through the Sawtooth National Recreation Area. I, like many others, fell for the little guard stations in the woods (most now mothballed), the badge, green uniforms, and tales of land stewardship. From college on, I spent most of my spare time outdoors and longed for a related career. After newspaper reporting on forestry in Oregon, I pur- sued a master’s degree in public administration/environmental politics to improve my chances of finding a natural-resources job. Retired Regional Forester Craig Rupp, who taught my forest policy class at Colorado State University, regaled us with stories about the first Chief Forester Gifford Pin- chot, the early Forest Service, and battles to conserve overused forests and rangelands. Many who joined the agency were inspired by early Pinchot stories. I certainly was. I wanted in.

    The first foresters to practice their profession in the American West were government men. The earliest of them, a mere handful, cruised the new forest reserves for the Department of Interior. But most of them came in 1905 and after as conservation-minded missionaries of the Department of Agriculture’s new Forest Service. This article on the “Forest Ranger” is presented in anticipation of the centennial of the U.S. Forest Service in 2005.

The Census Bureau had declared Jthe American frontier officially “closed” in 1890, and with natural resource conser- vation gaining popularity, many Americans doubtless admitted it was a “good thing” to hire government foresters—men who soon came to be called “Forest Rangers.” But the actual task these men faced was neither well understood To remedy the ignorance of the many and to counter the con- by, nor did it greatly concern, most people at the time. scious ill will of the powerful few, Chief Forester Gifford Pinchot And in the West these first rangers, although welcomed by and other Progressive Movement conservationists—aided by an some in the region, elicited scorn if not outright calumnies from enthusiastic and charismatic champion in the White House, some members of the region’s elite.
