Biographical NoteReturn to Top

William Robert (Bud) Moore was born on October 1, 1917 in Florence, Montana. The oldest of William and Hazel Moore’s nine children, Bud Moore graduated with an eighth grade diploma from Woodman Elementary School and went to work running a long-line trap line along the Lochsa River and the Lolo Trail in the Bitterroot Mountains of western Montana and northeastern Idaho. While he maintained the trap line in the winter, he began working on fire crews in the summer for the United States Forest Service at the age of 16, in 1934, and picked up other seasonal jobs with the department including alternate ranger, fire dispatcher, lookout, and trail crew foreman until the United States entered World War II. Moore married Mary Jane Buckhouse in Missoula, Montana on November 27, 1941.

Initially labeled 4-F by the military because of a hand injury, Moore joined the effort to cultivate guayule for rubber production. He moved to California and worked on the guayule farms until his hand healed and he was able to enlist in the Marines in May of 1943. During his three years in the Marine Corps, Moore served mostly in the Pacific including campaigns in Peleliu, New Britain, and Okinawa. While Moore was overseas, his and Jane’s son, William Henry (Bill), was born on October 22, 1943. Bud Moore was honorably discharged from the Marine Corps in February of 1946 and remained a part of the Marine Corps Reserves until 1952.

Moore returned to Montana and the Forest Service and eventually became a ranger in the Powell District. The Powell District served the Lochsa area and was part of what he considered his “home range.” In 1950, he was promoted to District Ranger of the Powell District. Bud and Jane’s daughter, Victoria (Vicki), was born in Missoula, Montana on May 18, 1953. Moore continued to be promoted to positions of higher responsibility including Deputy Supervisor of the Lolo National Forest and Training and Safety Officer in Ogden, Utah. In 1961, he was promoted to chief of the Branch of Employee Development and Training and transferred to Washington, D.C. He moved his family to Virginia and acquired property in West Virginia (Sandy Ridge Woods) where he began instituting his ideas on land use and ecosystem management. In 1964, he was assigned to direct the National Fire Coordination Study and, at the conclusion of the study in 1966, was named the Deputy Director of the Division of Fire Control. In 1969, he was reassigned to Missoula, Montana as the Division Chief of Fire Control and Air Operations for the Forest Service Northern Region, the position from which he retired in 1974.

Bud and Jane divorced and Bud married Janet Fitzgerald on May 17, 1971. Janet had four children from a previous marriage, Joe, Nancy, Kevin, and Susan. The same year he retired from the Forest Service, 1974, the University of Montana in Missoula awarded him an honorary Doctor of Science degree. He and Janet also purchased property in Swan Valley, Montana (Coyote Forest) that Moore would use to further institute his conservation and ecosystem management ideas and also establish a small milling business. He maintained his interest in the wilderness around his new home, trapping and hiking along the Lochsa and Clark Fork Rivers. Bud and Janet purchased another tract of land (Mattson Meadows) in Powell County, Montana, in 1976. In 2008, Moore would use this land as part of an exchange to acquire 210 acres (McFarland Creek) in Mineral County, Montana with hopes of rehabilitating it to a more natural state.

Moore wrote freelance articles on wilderness, recreation, trapping, and hunting topics starting in the 1960s and was published in magazines such as the Ford Times and Deer Sportsman. In 1974, he began gathering information to write a book on his experiences and ideas concerning wilderness and the Lochsa country of western Montana and the Idaho panhandle. Initially titled Rediscovery of Earth, his book would eventually be published as The Lochsa Story: Land Ethics in the Bitterroot Mountains by Mountain Press Publishing in 1996. Moore continued with his conservation advocacy work and writing following his retirement and also booked speaking engagements on conservation, fire control, trapping, hunting, and local history topics. He supported historical and conservation groups including the Upper Swan Valley Historical Group, the Travelers Rest Preservation and Heritage Association, the Swan Ecosystem Center, and the Montana Wilderness Association. His outreach work and affinity for storytelling put him in contact with many important writing and conservation figures in Montana including Norman Maclean, Arnold Bolle, Stewart Brandborg, and Doris Milner. He kept his property and home at Coyote Forest open to visitors and used it as a tool to teach people about responsible forest management and wilderness conservation.

Janet Moore passed away on April 7, 2001. Bud Moore was diagnosed with a sarcoma malignancy in February 2010; he passed away on November 26, 2010.

Custodial History

This collection was in the possession of its creator until his death in 2010 and then it transferred to his children. The collection was donated by the creator’s children, Bill Moore and Vicki Moore, to the University of Montana Archives and Special Collections in several accessions in 2011, 2012, and 2014. Vicki Moore also transferred entirely digital portions in 2012 and 2013.

Future Additions

There are no expected additions to this collection.

Processing Note

The creator’s original order was maintained wherever possible, many folders retain their original titles and series designations. Series determinations followed logical groupings according to the creator’s areas of interest and the original filing system. During processing, duplicates and easily accessible publications without annotations were removed from the collection. Bibliographies were created for published materials that were clearly indicated as reference materials for a particular project but lacked annotations. Folder annotations provided by Vicki Moore that went beyond an inventory were added to the finding aid to provide additional information. Most medical information relating to Bud Moore’s cancer treatment was removed with a single folder of information retained for the historical record. Financial information including routine payment of bills and easily accessible tax forms were also removed. Two books by John Crawford, Lewis and Clark and Me: Heading West from Travelers’ Rest and Lewis and Clark and Me II: The Journey West Continues, were removed from the collection and added to Special Collections. A reel of microfilm containing 11 volumes of Gifford Pinchot’s diaries (duplicated from the microfilm at the Library of Congress) was also removed and added to the general collection. Copies of the Lolo Peak News from 1998 to 2010 (incomplete) were removed from the collection and added to the Montana Collection.

This sub-subseries consists of photographs and slides that are a part of the Coyote Forest Photo Archive, a photo database created by the family, its electronic files are labeled "Library," most of the scanned images are cataloged in the boxes labeled "Digital Photographs, Source Materials." Photo numbers 2030 through 2263 and 2289 through 2300 are not in these boxes. Photos 2030 through 2263 are retained in their original locations in "The Lochsa Story, Selected Photos" folders and then organized by book chapter. Photos 2289 through 2300 do not exist either through a numbering error or were not digitized with the rest of the collection. All photos can be tracked to the digital copy (along with the additional information) by their photo number. Some of the photos have an associated audio file of Bud Moore talking about the photo or a memory associated with the photo. These audio files are labeled with the same number as the photo. A single box of assorted DVDs and CDs contains files that may duplicate materials already available in the electronic files and photo database. The digital versions of Bud Moore Photographs and Audio Recordings are available for access through the Montana History Portal. [Processor's Note: Includes scanned photos, descriptions, and audio recordings available in the collection. All descriptions, unless specifically labled as a library note, were provided by Bud Moore, his family and his associates.]

Here is a classic photo of what some observers call nature's watershed tree, the alpine fir, or Abies laceocarpa, taken on Beaver Ridge in Feb. 1953. The limbs all bend down tight against the tree, so the snow all avalanches right to the ground so there is less evaporation off the tree. They provide pretty good shade too. Note about these 1953 slides. "A lot happened in '53. We were out cruising those bark beetles. Working with ACM (now Plum Creek) working side by side." Also, early explorer, John Lieberg, is the one who first called this tree "nature's watershed tree." He made the first reports of this country with the USGS, which was charged with surveyor work, in the late 1800s. Idaho.

Bud can't be sure where this slide was taken, but it is possibly one of the cruising camps where Forest Service crews were cruising for the spruce bark beetle infestation in the winter. One of these that might be connected, but can't be sure, is up on Round Top Lookout up on Beaver Ridge where Forest Service dropped a camp, and dropped some lumber, on top of about ten feet of snow. Bud said, "We pitched a 14 x 16 tent on top of that, which became our bunkhouse for the project while we were up there. We were up there about ten days with a pretty good sized cruising crew. Looking at this photo, it looks like there is a wood floor under this tent. That would be the raft if that is the spot." Andy Arvish is holding the bowl, sitting on the bunk. Idaho.

This cabin is non-existent today, but its location was slightly upstream from where the West Fork of Squaw Creek comes into the main Squaw Creek drainage. It's a narrow tight canyon, and this is all partly under the road or something. You can't find the cabin remains today. This is one of the first cabins that Bud used for trapping purposes the winter he bought out the Wendover trapline from Bill and Orin VanHoose. Idaho.

"I thought Frank could do anything, and I was pretty much right. The only thing he wasn't good at was marriage, family. He never married." (Bud) Frank told Bud, "When I was young, and strong and handsome, I couldn't see any of the girls to get tied up with, and now that I'm old, they don't want to get tied up with me." He was a good trapper, and worked lumber camps. Idaho.

Another picture of an Army Weasel in use as conveyance over the snow. Here it's traveling on an old road bed on steep ground in deep snow. "These weasels proved to be very efficient transport for four or five people to and from work, wherever you had a reasonably level bed. Their achilles heel was they'd throw a track once in awhile and we'd have to dig in under it and get the track back on the cogs. That would take maybe an hour or two to get it going again. The mechanic and driver would crawl under the weasel and the rest of us would build a big bonfire until we got it going again." Idaho.
