The Kaibab National Forest’s geology program strives to provide accurate information on geology, minerals, fossils, mining, regulations and conservation education. The Kaibab area is rich with diverse examples of many fascinating geologic features and processes that have occurred over millions of years. This information is presented with the intent of providing the public with a basic foundation of geologic information and regulations while maintaining a healthy stewardship of Forest Service lands.
The Kaibab National Forest strives to have habitat available at the appropriate spatial, temporal, compositional, and structural levels for avariety of vertebrate and invertebrate species.
The Kaibab Plateau is home to at least 13 species of bats, a diversity likely made possible by the significant elevation changes and accompanying variety of habitats in the area.
