Permits are for pinon or juniper trees.
Since the demand exceeds the supply of suitable trees, a drawing system was devised to make issuance of the available permits as fair as possible. Applications postmarked after the deadline will be disqualified from the drawing. The drawing will begin October 16, and permits will be mailed to successful applicants after November 10, so everyone should know the outcome before Thanksgiving. After the drawing, the application and personal check or money order in payment of the fee is returned to unsuccessful applicants. Applicants may select up to six cutting areas, in order of preference, where they are willing to go obtain their tree.
