stroom is.
Lon Garrison. A smiling man of
71, tall and husky with long gray
hair, denim jacket and beaded neck
lace who will tell you what a park
ranger is. He will tell you about
himself.
Garrison is a lecturer for TAMU.
His office on the first floor of Good
win Hall offers certificates of ap
preciation and achievement on
bright yellow, close walls. (The
printed, official-looking ones are
addressed to Lemuel A. Garrison;
the hand tooled, home-made ones
are to Lon.) There are pictures of
grizzly bears, geysers and big-horn
sheep scattered. His desk holds an
obtrusive fiberglass mold of a grizzly
paw print. There is one special pic
ture of a bear with whom you feel a
certain sense of intimacy—it is
signed, “Gratefully, Yogi Bear.”
When asked about his education,
Garrison says, “It doesn’t matter,
because I’ve had all the wrong an
tecedents. He graduated from
Stanford with a degree in psychol
ogy because like so many other col
lege students, he hadn’t decided
what he really wanted to do. It took
him 10 years to get through college.
“In those days, we called it ‘working
your way through.’
The summer before his junior
year gave him his first chance to
work in the field of recreation and
parks; he got a job with the National
Forest Service in Alaska. He stayed
there through the winter, where he
met and married his present wife,
Inger, and taught school before re
turning to Stanford to finish his de
gree in 1927. Because of this experi
ence, Garrison decided he wanted
to be a park ranger.
A degree in psychology is not a
recommendation for working for a
national park, but Lon got a job in
Sequoia National Park. He started
in “season work’’ (essentially
maintenance work) while studying
to be a ranger. After four years, he
became a ranger for Yosemite Na
tional Park in 1932.
In the following years, he and
Inger moved to seven different na
tional parks, including Big Bend,
Yellowstone, Glacier and Grand
Canyon. Sometimes Garrison
would stay at an outpost, separated
from other people by a day’s ride on
horseback. More often, he and his
wife stayed in villages or com
munities with other families in the
parks. Did he ever get lonely? “No,
heavens no. There was always a lot
of work to be done. Inger might
have, but it never occurred to me to
ask her."
As a forest ranger, he planted
fish, trapped bad bears, fought
forest fires and saved lost mountain
climbers. When they lived in Yel
lowstone, Mrs. Garrison had to
chase a friendly, but nosey, bear out
of the second floor of their house. A
bear called Lon’s bluff one day when
he was trying to scare the bear away
from a hotel. Garrison stamped his
feet and hooted at the bear, the bear
stamped and hooted back and the
ranger “got the hell out of there!”
Parks and recreation offers a very
exciting and rewarding career ac
cording to Lon Garrison. “It is far
more than going back to the woods.
You deal with natural resources and
you have an identification with
motherhood, apple pie and low
taxes,” he said. “It has social rele
vance and meaning. It’s an amelio
ration of conflicts in the inner city.

His last assignment as director of
training at Albright Training
Academy at Grand Canyon in 1970
gave him a chance to lecture at
many different universities, includ
ing Penn State, New York State,
Colorado State and Texas A&M.
When he retired, he saw this as a
good way to continue to be as
sociated with park affairs, and last
year he became a lecturer for
TAMU. He also wanted to work
with students going into the field of
recreation and parks and “extend
my shadow.” “I’m no longer in
volved in park affairs,” he said, “but
I can help the young people under
stand what they are getting into. I
have found the job very rewarding. ”
