To the editor:

The White Mountain National Forest is a treasure, but the White Mountains weren’t always covered by forest. By 1900, they had been clear-cut, leaving the remaining debris to dry out and burn — resulting in erosion and rivers plugged with silt.

Author’s note: In this letter to the Conway Daily Sun, I referred to “Trump” as “Trump”. The Sun changed “Trump” to “Former President Donald Trump.” Though I didn’t write it that way, I do like the sound of it. -Jerry Curran
