This is the first smokejumper base in Oregon history and the last of the original four smokejumper bases in American history that is still standing in its origi- nal location. The site includes the oldest smokejumper parachute loft in North America and is known around the world as the home of the Apollo 14 moon trees. The authenticity and integrity of the site represents a significant tourism marketing advantage for Josephine County. Smokejumping - An American Innovation The following summary provides a perspective on how the Siskiyou Smokejumper Base relates to the overall history of smokejumping. Smokejumping is an American innovation that began when the first test jumps made in 1939 at Winthrop, Washington. The first smokejumper base was es- tablished in the following year, 1940, at Missoula, Montana. Two more bases were established in 1943, one at McCall, Idaho and the other at Cave Junction, Oregon, the base we know today as the Siskiyou Smokejumper Base.

    The Missoula A 50-Year Fire Sciences Dedication to Laboratory: Understanding Wildlands and Fire Diane M. Smith United States Department of Agriculture / Forest Service Rocky Mountain Research Station General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-270 March 2012 Smith, Diane M. 2012. The Missoula Fire Sciences Laboratory: A 50-year dedication to understanding wildlands and fire. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS- GTR-270. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 62 p. Abstract In 1960, the USDA Forest Service established the Northern Forest Fire Laboratory (now the Missoula Fire Sciences Laboratory) to find scientific solutions for better managing the nation’s wildland resources and to research ways to improve forest fire prevention and suppression. This new state-of-the-art research facility did not emerge from a vacuum, however. This report explores the tradition of research within the Forest Service and how these early research programs, including fire- related research at the Priest River Experimental Forest, contributed to the estab- lishment of the Fire Lab. This history also explores the role played by key events in shaping fire-related research. Keywords: wildland fire research, Missoula Fire Sciences Laboratory, Northern Rocky Mountain Research Station, Forest Service history, forest fire prevention and suppression history All cover photos USDA Forest Service.

    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 “FOREST RANGER” in POPULAR FICTION: 1910–2000 ust over one hundred years ago, the concept of creating federal forest reserves and hiring federal foresters to run them was still novel. 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.
