Talk to a Ranger

Rangers are stationed at Rainbow Bridge often during summer. They are ready to talk about how amazing Rainbow Bridge is, answer questions, and explain things like how the bridge formed. They might even have Junior Ranger books and badges, and are so excited to swear in Junior Rangers.
