RB083 Ten Fathoms Deep

  Our Saturday afternoon Ranger Bill

for May 23, 2026, is RB083

10 Fathoms Deep

It's time for the Winter Ice Festival in Knotty Pine!!! There will be toboggan runs and downhill skiing for the speed merchants, ice skating and ice carving, and for the very patient - ice fishing. Bill and his rangers have managed to keep the Ice Festival accident free for better than ten years now. But fast drivers and careless folks on the frozen Shady River try hard to break Bill's good record.

RB113 Charlie's Nightmare

An out-of-control missile is flying over Knotty Pine. It could fall from the sky at any moment and explode! Bill could choose to have the missile shot down, but that would cause millions of dollars of damage to the national forest.

• Bim seemed an appropriate story when Cleveland celebrated the life of BALTO, lead sled dog on the final leg of the 600-mile trip to deliver diptheria vaccine from Anchorage to Nome, Alaska in 1925.
