CAMPTON — If unboxing and assembling an artificial Christmas tree isn’t going to cut it this year, the U.S. Forest Service has got you covered. Load up the station wagon a la Clark Griswold and begin the search for your perfect tree on the White Mountain National Forest. You’ll create family memories and traditions while getting out in the fresh mountain air.

You will need a permit to cut any Christmas tree in on the National Forest. Permits cost just $5 and are available beginning Nov. 21, the day before Thanksgiving. You can purchase a permit with cash or check only at our office locations in Campton, Lincoln, Gorham and Conway. Be sure to call ahead to make sure permits are being sold when you arrive.
