Abstract

During 2005, the USDA Forest Service celebrated its Centennial, recognizing 100 years of successfully caring for the land and serving people. The Rocky Mountain Research Station has been, and continues to be, an integral part of the Forest Service mission, dating back to the Agency's beginning, with the establishment of the Santa Rita Experimental Range near Tucson, Arizona in 1903. Since then, the Station has grown, adapted, modernized, diversified, and transitioned into a world-class leader in natural resources research and development. It is the largest, most diverse station in the largest natural resource research organization in the world.
