Show THE iEUi FREE PEESS Regional Conference for Explorers Planned for June in California age boys, and each Explorer unit develops its program built around Spring activities for Explorer posts will include attendance of delegates at the Region 12 Explorer Conference to be held at Davis, California, and the third training session in the "Ready" preparedness program, according to Robert Chatfield, Lehi District Chairman. A highlight of the Region 12 five-staconference, regional scheduled for June 28 to 30 at the University of California, will be reports and discussions on action related to the "Viewpoint of Youth" that was developed at the National Explorer Delegates Conference held last August at Ann Arbor, Michigan, Mr. Chatfield said. The "Ready" program requires that the high school-ag- e Explorers qualify in fitness tests, complete preparedness training, and take part in at least three preparedness activities. The spring training session covers "Family Preparedness and Emergency Living." "Exploring is for all high school social skills, vocational inquiries, personal fitness, citizenship participation, and effective service," Mr. Chatfield said. Other Explorer possible spring activities will include a summer job survey, business owner invesendurance tigation, cross-countrace, participation in the National Explorer Bowling Tournament, and observance of Mother's Day. Many of the Explorer posts in the Utah National Parks Council are making plans now for "superactivities" that will include the 1963 High Uintah Fishing Trip, Colorado River Trip,Phil-mon- t, and the International LDS Explorer Delegates Conference at the Brigham Young University. ry te nt Major Mahar Retires From U.S. Air Force The active military career of Major Philip Joseph Mahar, of Mr. and Mrs. Henry C.

S. Forest Service Intermountain Region. A map keyed into photos and captions provides a tour for motorists wishing to skirt the mountain on the well known Alpine Scenic Loop and for hikers going into the area. Five life Zones A dominant feature of the Scenic Area is famed Mt. Timpanogos.. From its lower slope to the 11,750-fopeak, the famous mountain takes in five major life zones revealing the same climatic and vegetative changes one would encounter on a journey from Provo to the Arctic Circle. Other features of interest within the scenic area are Timp Glacier, cascades, waterfalls, about 30 species of mammals, and 54 species of birds. Wildlife Abundant The folder reports that mule deer and bobcat are abundant, and that a few black bear, coyote and mountain lion inhabit the mountain's more rugged reaches. King of the area's uird population is the golden eagle, which haunts Timp's clouds and crags throughout much of the year. Scenic Area was The 10,750-acr- e established in 1961, and dedicated at the onset of the annual "Timp Hike." At that time Regional Forester Floyd Iverson told some 4,000 hikers that the area would be preserved in its pristine condition. The purpose, he said, would be to insure aesthetic and spiritual satisfaction for people today and for coming generations. Mt.
