Tucked back in carefully chosen locations on the Lincoln National Forest, you can see baby trees poking up from the ground among the blackened logs remaining from fires that laid bare patches of the forest. These fledgling trees aren’t here by accident. They are here because of one woman’s determination to unlock the science behind reforestation in the arid southwestern forest.
Sam, a Forest Technician with the US Forest Service, is on a mission to save lost hikers and hunters on the Guadalupe Ranger District of the Lincoln National Forest…or at least help them save themselves.
