All Logging on National Forests Is Worth Less Than Two Home Depot Stores

More than 90 percent of American lumber comes off private land. The Trump administration wants to industrially log America’s national forests anyway.

Golden #NewMexico was inhabited by Native Americans + Spaniards until gold was discovered at Tuerto Creek around 1825. The San Francisco de Asis Church was est in 1839 by the local Spaniard-Mexican community. 1960 it was restored by Fray Angelico Chavez — historian, author, and priest. #photography

Went to Florissant Fossil Beds this past week: Just before the entrance, you'll find the Historical Hornbek Ranch: www.nps.gov/flfo/learn/h... 📲 @protectparks.bsky.social to help save public lands linktr.ee/lueoutdoorsllc #Colorado #history #monuments #nationalparks #ranching #womensrights #travel

View of the Homestead
"Adeline Warfield was born in 1833 and raised in the farming country of Franklin County, Massachusetts. She was 17 years old when the first National Woman's Rights Convention was held nearby in Worcester. The convention speakers told the young women of Massachusetts and of the nation “to be individuals and be all that they are capable of”. Possibly inspired by this social movement that challenged the view of the traditional roles of women, she along with her brother and his wife, left Massachusetts and traveled westward in the early 1850’s dreaming of a new life in the frontier."

"The Warfields settled in the Creek Nation, a Native American territory in what is now Oklahoma, where her brother worked as an Indian trader. When the American Civil War started in 1861, Adeline was married to Simon Harker, her brother's business partner, and was raising their two young children and helping operate at least two trading posts. Unfortunately, the Civil War split the Indian Nation apart, and terrible violence ensued between the different tribes. Seeking safety, Adeline, Simon, and their two children left the Indian Territory and resettled in the rapidly growing territory of Colorado."

(Tack Room and Wagon)

"Laboring alongside her husband, she helped start a new life for her family near the mining settlement of Denver. She and Simon established a cattle ranch near the stage road that led to Denver. They sold cattle and produce to the miners and new immigrants. In 1863, Adeline gave birth to her third child. In the spring of 1864, a historic flash flood ravaged Denver and the area of Adeline’s ranch. Many lives were lost, livestock drowned, and ranches were devastated. Already suffering from tuberculosis and then exposed to the flood, Simon became seriously ill and died weeks later. Adeline was left alone – a widow with three small children to raise, a destroyed ranch, and an uncertain future."
(Cabin and Storage "Shed")

"In 1876, as Colorado celebrated its statehood, Adeline relocated for the last time to an area known as the Florissant Valley. At an elevation of 8500 feet, this alpine valley was covered with large meadows of wild buffalo grass and acres of aspen and pine trees. This was the ideal conditions for a free-grazing cattle ranch. With the help of her neighbors and her teenage children, she built a two-story log house with 5 rooms and a parlor that would be the center of her new ranch. Historically, Adeline would be one of the first women to file a Homesteading Claim in the Florissant Valley and the state of Colorado.
...
In 1893, Adeline and other women voted legally for the first time in Colorado. Historians argue that women of the frontier, like Ms. Hornbek, proved they had earned their right to vote. It was not a coincidence that states like Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming were the first to recognize the equality of men and women. Twenty-seven years later, the 19th Amendment gave many women in the United States the right to vote."
