Pinecrest, CA — Stanislaus National Forest Summit District Ranger Karen Caldwell has retired after 31 years of service with the Forest Service.

Her interim replacement, Kevin Larkin, is currently the acting Kaibab National Forest Administrative Officer in the Forest Service’s Southwestern Region.  The Kaibab National Forest is North of Grand Canyon National Park in Nothern Arizona and South of Zion National Park in Southern Utah.

He will be a wonderful asset in working with the partners we have in place to best achieve national goals and manage the challenging recreation and natural resource issues that are very important to our local communities.”
