Ranger Bill, warrior of the woodland, struggling against extreme odds, traveling dangerous trails, fighting the many enemies of nature. This is the job of the guardian of the forest, Ranger Bill, pouring rain, freezing cold, blistering heat, snow, floods, bears, rattlesnakes, mountain lions.
Yes, all this in exchange for the satisfaction and pride of a job well done. There's lots of excitement in Naughty Pine these days. This is the time of year when the state championship Bobsled race is held at Culver's Peak.
The Bobsled's race at breakneck speeds around Culver's Peak, twisting and turning on hair pin curves, and then they come into the straightaway, which shoots them down the side of the shady river valley. Rangers hold a speed record of 65 and 3, 10 miles an hour. And we have held the championship for three years. But now our position is being threatened. The coal
