Mr. Hall,
You posting is an extremely well written explanation of the current state of affairs between politics and and the needs of our forests. My only beef with any of this is that it seems to me that the risk of fire in western Colorado is easily as dangerous as it is between Chama and Antonito. Witness the fire near Glenwood Springs. Therefore, why have the politicians left the D&S to run the risk of starting monsterous fires over there. It seems to me that someone would just like to see the C&TS flounder and this is their way of trying to bring that about.
