Dear HCN,
Your May 13 special issue
on Westerners talking together was timely and thought-provoking.
Two such efforts are under way on north-central
Idaho’s Clearwater National Forest. It’s too soon to know if they
will be a success, but it is worth noting that the Forest Service
has been an honest and energetic proponent. The agency and the
citizens with whom it has been working have so far done a pretty
decent job of providing leadership and seeking the high road – a
real contrast to Idaho’s mean and shallow congressional
delegation.
