Short Description of Activity

Sue Small and I met to discuss strategy for protection of Little Water Canyon and dealing with opposition from the FS range managers and the district ranger to moving all cattle out of the Little Water Canyon spring area and drainage.

Reflection/Evaluation

The topic did not come up for discussion, but we did advocate for more recommended wilderness for the district, and were able to have a discussion of the importance of the Mexican Gray Wolf to the NM landscape.
