Abstract:  This document recreates an historically valuable report prepared by George A. Bright in 1914.  It describes an extensive reconnaissance of the Wenaha National Forest that Bright completed in 1913.  In addition to narratives about the natural resources, existing uses, and management opportunities of the Forest, the report includes 42 black-and-white photographs (hence the large file size).   Additional historical photographs of the Wenaha National Forest were included by the editor (David C. Powell) in an appendix.  The original report is reproduced in its entirety, with occasional comments added by the editor.
