The U.S. Forest Service has a decision open here and is taking comments on it. White Mountain National Forest, Maine.
The agency files it as “Loon Mountain Resort Expansion”
No photograph has been filed on this mission yet. The first one lands here with its fingerprint, where its location came from, and how far inside the agency’s own boundary it was taken. The places to check are below.
The agency has published no document here with a sentence a photograph could settle, only a notice. The line below is read from that notice.
Walk the forest edge where the ski trails end and the woods begin at Loon Mountain. Photograph the trailheads and parking, worn footpaths, any fire rings or camp spots, and how many cars and hikers you count, with the date.
The agency has published no document here with a sentence a photograph could settle, only a notice. The line below is read from that notice.
Walk the National Forest land just outside Loon Mountain's current ski area boundary, where new trails and lifts would go. Photograph the hiking paths, parking areas and campsites as they are now, with the date showing.
Open. Anything filed before October 23 goes into the comment file the agency has to answer. After that it backs the formal objections, goes to the lawyers on the fight, and is the story.
More Than Just Parks doesn’t direct where you go or what you do. Terms.
