Description
A History of the Wasatch-Cache National Forest / submitted to the Wasatch-Cache National Forest, September 25, 1980 ; by Charles S. Peterson, Linda E. Speth, Utah State University. The history of the forest falls into two major periods. The first, of what might be called the formative years, lasted 1903 until perhaps the mid 1930s although the cutoff date is not precise. Grazing, watershed and timber, probably in that order, dominated the forest's programs during that period. Although some remarkable scientific achievements may be noted, this was clearly the era of the practical horseback ranger whose great strengths lay in what may be called "grass-roots wisdom and homespun diplomacy. The second period was launched with a great upsurge as weather conditions, the national mood and the economy brought new programs in the New Deal years. With urbanism, affluence and growing consciousness of environmental problems to fuel them, the programs of the forest have generally maintained their momentum in the years since. Recreation and environmental themes have replaced the earlier emphasis upon grazing and timber.
