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.

Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. SBROTW_130715_021.JPG: In 1920's this Indian originally stood 300 yards south at previous entrance of Arrowhead Springs. He points to natural landmark, Hot Springs and sites of various hotels built since first spa in 1863. Statue was restored at a joint project of Arrowhead Parlor 110, Native Sons of the Golden West Lugonia Parlor 241, Native Daughters of the Golden West, Campus Crusade for Christ International. Dedicated March 27, 1976
2. SBROTW_130715_079.JPG: Mormon Lumber Road: In the spring of 1852, over one hundred Mormon men donated a full thousand man-days of arduous labor, to construct a road up Waterman Canyon, past this spot, and into the prime timber, where some of their enterprising bethren established six sawmills by 1854. The lumber hauled over this road, thereafter, was used, not only to build San Bernardino, but also throughout Southern California, where the boards were sometimes called, "Mormon Banknotes."
3. SBROTW_130715_101.JPG: 101 mile drive on the rim of the world Dedicated July 18, 1915
4. SBROTW_130715_104.JPG: This monument duplicates the original monument commemorating the completion of the Rim of the World Drive in 1915. It is both fitting and proper that this monument be placed at Baylis Park. Dr. John Baylis played a major role in the road's construction and name. Re-construction occurred in 2009. Performed by Crestline Enterprises. Sponsored by the Rim of the World Historical Society. Lead by Russ Keller.
5. SBROTW_130715_112.JPG: Donald S. Wieman 1900-1977 In 1932, during the Great Depression, California launched a large public works project to aid recovery. A major component was the construction of masonry walls, parapets and fountains along the historic "Rim of the World" highway. This work, widely acclaimed for its beauty and craftsmanship, was the handiwork of Donald S. Wieman. This vista point is dedicated to his memory.

The San Bernardino National Forest is a federally managed forest encompassing 823,816 acres (3,333.87 km2) of which 677,982 acres (2,743.696 km2) are federal. The forest is made up of two main divisions, the San Bernardino Mountains on the easternmost of the Transverse Ranges, and the San Jacinto and Santa Rosa Mountains on the northernmost of the Peninsular Ranges. Elevations range from 2,000 to 11,499 feet (600 to 3505 m). The forest includes five wilderness areas: San Gorgonio, Cucamonga, San Jacinto, Santa Rosa and Bighorn Mountain. Forest headquarters are located in the city of San Bernardino. There are district offices in Fontana, Idyllwild, and Skyforest.

(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.
