Forests OHer
Many Sports

SANTA FE, N. NJ, May 10.
THE thrill Of getting off the
l. beaten path and into the
scenic grandeur of the rugged
high country is just a matter OF
driving into the national forests
in New Mexico.
New Mexico's seven forests
cover an area of $500, 900 acres,
comprising nearly IL per cent
of the states total area. All
of the forest regions throw a
blanket of cool greenHess over
the high mountain country.
In this vast playground the
motorist will find neraly $500
miles of forest roads, which
have been built with an eye for
scenic beauty and the preserva-
ton of roadside timber in its
natural state. In addition there
are 1900 miles of forest trails,
suitable for riding and hiking.
These road and trail figures
include only those in the five
national forests which lie
wholly in New Mexico-the
Carson, Cibola. ella, Lincoln and
Sante Fe. The Coronado and
Apache nation forests lap over
from Arizona, and provide still
more recreational areas.
To add to motoring pleasure,
the forest service has prepared
a series of loop drives through
New Mexico's forest areas.
These informative booklets are
complied with mile-by-mile logs,
and may be obtained from either
the forest supervisors or SOUTH
west regional headquarters at
Albuquerque, N. M.
A total of 10 forest camps
and picnic grounds have been de-
Yeloped in national forests In
New Mexico, and these are open
to the public without charge.
Approved water and refuse ia
cilities are available at all of
the developed areas, offering
conveniences far off the we'll
travelled highways.
Each forest area has its own
particular scenic and recrea-
tional features, but as a whole
New Mexico offers stream
fishing, hunting, saddle and
pack trips, hiking, Winter sports
and unlimited Photographic pos
sibilities.
