    US National Forest ServiceFlagstaff AZ (December 9, 2020) – The City of Flagstaff will host a firewood giveaway in partnership with the Coconino National Forest starting this weekend.

    Wood that has been cleared as part of the Flagstaff Watershed Protection Project will be available on a first-come, first-served basis from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. – or until all wood is claimed – on December 12 and 13.

    The giveaway will be held at the Schultz Pass Staging Area, located at the junction of Forest Road (FR) 556 and FR 420. The giveaway area can only be accessed by the entrance directly across from FR 556, and vehicles must exit out of the east end of the staging area.

    About 100 cords of cured mixed conifer firewood – a combination of spruce/ fir and pine – will be available. The wood has been processed into firewood-sized logs ranging from 12 to 18 inches long, split 4 to 6 inches wide.

    Permits will be available on site, and there is no need to contact the City of Flagstaff or Coconino National Forest prior. Trailers are not allowed, and all wood must be self-loaded into vehicles. Firewood is for personal use only and cannot be re-sold. There is no limit on the amount of wood that each participant can claim, and the giveaway is open to the general public, including those who live outside of Coconino County. However, wood is expected to go quickly, and the giveaway will end once all wood is claimed and collected.

    Those who arrive at the staging area to claim wood are asked not to climb on wood piles or log decks for safety purposes. Children are asked to remain in vehicles while at the site, and the site will be closed to the general public outside of giveaway hours.

    This giveaway is expected to be the first of many. The City of Flagstaff plans to host more giveaways – dependent on weather – until all the firewood is gone.

    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.
