    logo_USFS_USDAFlagstaff AZ (May 9, 2019) – The Flagstaff Ranger District of the Coconino National Forest has begun selling commercial firewood permits for six areas of live “shaggy bark” juniper trees near Yeager Canyon that will provide approximately 10 cords of wood in each area.

    Permits cost $50 and can only be purchased at the Flagstaff Ranger Station, across from the Flagstaff Mall at 5057 N. Hwy 89, Flagstaff; (928) 526-0866, weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

    Each cutting area is about 4 to 7 acres, ensuring a minimum of 10 cords of wood available in each area. Specific cutting requirements are stated in the permit, which will be inspected upon completion or at the end of the firewood season. Each area must be completed and inspected before another permit may be purchased.

    Detailed information, conditions, and a map will be provided with each permit. More information can also be found online at https://go.usa.gov/xmnJB. For questions, please contact Jacob Dahlin at (928) 214-2424.

    Firewood cutters should be aware chainsaws can throw sparks and ignite grasses and brush, so please take care when cutting firewood. Always carry a shovel and a fire extinguisher or water in case of a fire start.

    Additionally, all chainsaws must be equipped with a stainless steel spark arrestor screen. Cutters need to ensure they are aware of the current fire restrictions by checking local Forest Service information.

    Though the vast majority of forest roads are currently open, motorists should stay off forest roads that could be damaged by rutting if wet.

    Unless specified elsewhere in the permit or on its accompanying map, or identified as prohibited, motorized off-road travel is authorized to access and load firewood. Please exercise caution when driving off-road and avoid resource damage.

    The Coconino National Forest now has GPS-enabled firewood maps for smartphones, tablets and Garmin GPS devices, which may be used as a supplement to the firewood guide issued with each permit.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
