Welcome to the Cleveland National Forest!
100 years young! Join us in celebrating our Centennial.
Bi-national Ranger
It was 100 years ago on July 1st that President Theodore Roosevelt signed a declaration that created the Cleveland National Forest. Now, 100 years later, the Cleveland National Forest is going strong and proves to be a wonderful play ground for not only wildlife, but for many of the 3 million plus residents in the greater San Diego area.

Raptors on our Forest
Golden Eagles and Prairie Falcons have long made their seasonal homes here in San Diego County. Protecting their habitat is one of many responsibilities of the Cleveland National Forest. Temporary seasonal closures on Corte Madera Mountain, Eagle Peak and El Cajon Mountain areas ended July 2008.

Greatest
Good
This documentary brings together national
organizations, renowned historians, political
activists and major
corporations to share their perspectives on one
hundred years of conservation and the prospects
for the future.
The Forest History Society has developed a
Teacher's
Guide to the Forest Service's documentary history
of The Greatest
Good. The Guide is now
active on the Forest History Society web site.
This guide offers K-12 educators suggestions
for incorporating
age-appropriate portions of the film and its
bonus materials into the
social studies, science, math, and civics classroom.
There are also links
to other complementary activities and lessons.
The Forest History Society would appreciate
any comments on the design of
the site as well as
your suggestions about how to use the film
in the classroom and other
curricular that could be used with the film.
Please send your comments to
