I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

1. KAIBAB_120719_03.JPG: Teddy Roosevelt's Legacy -- The Kaibab National Forest: Ranchers, lumbermen, entrepreneurs and homesteaders all came to the Kaibab Plateau with dreams of success because of the Plateau's natural resources. Teddy Roosevelt also came to the Kaibab to hunt deer and mountain lions. It was during those expeditions that Roosevelt was so inspired by the beauty of the area and the abundance of wildlife that he declared the Kaibab Plateau a "National Game Preserve." Then, as now, the Kaibab Plateau's natural resources support multiple uses including harvest of thriving wildlife populations. The Kaibab National Forest is one of Teddy's legacies to the American people.
2. KAIBAB_120719_14.JPG: Kaibab Deer: In the 1880s, ranchers brought cattle, sheep, and horses to the Kaibab Plateau. Over 200,000 of these domesticated animals heavily grazed the native grasses, clearing the way for an invasion of browse plants that provided a greater supply of deer food. Aggressive predator control and plentiful foo allowed the deer population to soar in the early 1920s. Soon, too many deer meant not enough food to go around. Massive starvation quickly followed the harsh winter of 1924/25. Current management of the Kaibab Plateau emphasized habitat restoration and maintaining a balance between forage and deer herd size. Hunting is an important part of the Arizona Game and Fish Department's management plan to ensure that the mule deer population does not outgrow available food sources. Kaibab mule deer are famous for their magnificent antlers that may spread over 30 inches.
Wikipedia Description: Kaibab National Forest
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

At 1.6 million acres (6,500 km2) the Kaibab National Forest borders both the north and south rims of the Grand Canyon, in north-central Arizona. It is divided into three major sections: the North Kaibab Ranger District (offices in Fredonia) and the South Kaibab and are managed by USDA Forest Service. The South Kaibab is further divided into two forests, the Tusayan Ranger District (offices in Grand Canyon), and the Williams Ranger District (offices in Williams). The Grand Canyon is a natural boundary between the North Kaibab and the South Kaibab. The South Kaibab covers 1,422 square miles (3,680 km2) and the North Kaibab stretches over 1,010 square miles (2,600 km2). Elevations vary on the forest from 5,500 feet (1,676 m) in the southwest corner to 10,418 feet (3,175 m) at the summit of Kendrick Peak on the Williams Ranger District. The forest as a whole is headquartered in Williams.
Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.) I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
