Grand Canyon Nov. 5, 1930. Trip from Main Park Entrance through half of the cut-over area then south to Camp 36 north to Rim Road, Desert View & East to Coconino Basin. The cut-over area has been logged very carefully; only about half the timber being cut. But much of the timber cut was valueless or scant of heart rot - in some places it seemed to amount to about half. The beauty of the cut-over area is but slightly impaired. The underbrush, of which there is very little & the forage should be improved by the cutting. Grazing in the past several years ago has been too heavy. The grass is very sparse & all trees have been browsed clean about 6 ft. high resulting in the death of most of the small oaks, berries, & rebs. There is practically no rebs. in this area - practically Some cattle are grazed up to the very rim of the canyon still. A water hole is just off the rim road. The park boundary comes within half a mile of the canyon in much of this area. And this is where the cutting has been done.
