Jim Paxon, Forest Service spokesman, quickly achieved folk hero status for his plain-spoken approach to providing public information. "I don't think I blame any one segment -- the environmentalists, the forest users, the managers, elected officials -- all of us have some culpability for this fire," he says. "We all need to put our personal agendas away and talk about management."Date Original2002-06-30Date Range2000s (2000-2009)TypeStill ImageOriginal FormatColor photographsContributing InstitutionShow Low Historical Society MuseumCollectionShow Low Historical Society Collection HighlightsSubcollectionBuswell, Brian and White Mountain Independent Special ReportRights StatementU.S. and international copyright laws protect this digital image.
