Abstract

Just a few years ago, the cutting of trees was prohibited in Ruidoso. Today, the village is leading the nation with ordinances calling for mandatory thinning on private property, an effort applauded by State Forester Barbara Luna. Thinning is more likely going to save their forests than not thinning. It's a whole paradigm shift for a lot of people.
