Figure 32: Lands of the Port Neuf Forest Reserve as proclaimed in 1907 as one of the “Midnight Reserves” of President Theodore Roosevelt and as the area looks today as part of the Westside Ranger District of the Caribou-Targhee National Forest. The area has remained remarkably the same as proclaimed, although with some loss of land mandated by Proclamation 1034 of May 16, 1910 on the periphery of the forest while the unit was a part of the Pocatello National Forest. POWELL NATIONAL FOREST, UTAH 1908-1944 The Powell National Forest was named in honor of Major John Wesley Powell, explorer of the American southwest and second Director of the U.S. Geological Survey (Van Cott, p. 303). The eastern portion of the Sevier National Forest was added in 1922. This was a significant change because the future Bryce Canyon National Park was established from this portion of the former Sevier National Forest and consequentially accounts for many of the boundary changes experienced by the Powell National Forest between 1922 and 1945. The area we now know as Bryce Canyon National Park was first proclaimed Bryce Canyon National Monument on June 8, 1923 using Powell National Forest lands added to the forest on May 17, 1923 by Proclamation 1661. The new monument was administered by the Forest Service. After a year of Forest Service management, Bryce Canyon National Monument was given national park status and renamed Utah National Park by an Act of Congress on June 7, 1924. All management responsibility was transferred to the National Park Service. Once again the name was changed, this time to Bryce Canyon National Park on February 25, 1928 and has so remained to the present day. Forest Supervisor’s Headquarters for the Powell National Forest were first established in Escalante, Utah, in 1908. Administrative headquarters relocated to Widtsoe, Utah late in 1919 and later, in 1926, headquarters for the Powell National Forest were changed to Panguitch, Utah, located on U.S. Highway 89, where it remained until 1945, the year the Powell National Forest was discontinued by transfer of all its lands to the adjacent Dixie National Forest. 208.

Copyright holder does ask that you reference the title of the essay and my name as the author in the event others may need to reach me for clarification, with questions, or to use more extensive portions of my reference work. Also, please contact me if you find any errors or have a map that has not been included in the cartobibliography. 1 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS In the process of compiling this work, I have met many dedicated cartographers, Forest Service staff, academic and public librarians, archivists, and entrepreneurs. I am indebted to long-time map librarians Janet Collins, Donna Koepp, and Stanley Stevens for their early encouragement and consistent support of this project. In the fall of 2013, I was awarded a fellowship by The Pinchot Institute for Conservation and the Grey Towers National Historic Site. The Scholar in Residence program of the Grey Towers Heritage Association allowed me time to write and edit this work in an office in Gifford Pinchot’s ancestral home. I remain deeply grateful for this opportunity and must thank Lincoln Bramwell, Forest Service historian, for encouraging me to apply.
