National Park Service Expands Roles in Park Life
Horace M. Albright, director, says the service handles forester, landscape, research, education and outdoor leadership duties. Snow removal on Fall River Pass uses a new snowplow to open routes for summer visitors. In 1930 about 3 million people used park opportunities and private firms run hotels and transport with government rate oversight. A new Washington branch coordinates education and museums, with ranger naturalists guiding visitors and museums preserving artefacts for future generations. Mesa Verde National Park is set aside for studying prehistoric cultural development.
