This document resulted from my discussions with some of them, and the conclusion that something must be started to address the complex situation. Appreciation is extended to the participants in this project, who chose to get involved, and whose assistance and knowledge contributed significantly to the project. Their knowledge ofthe country, keen observations, and perceptive interpretations of the situation are unsurpassed. As a bonus, they are a pleasure to be around.

  • Bill Mccarty Interviewed by Gladys Long
    Socorro County Historical Society, Oral History Tapes Bill McCarty interviewed by Gladys Long Bill McCarty is a native New Mexican who was born in Reserve 77 years ago. Can you tell us something about Reserve? It's just a Spanish settlement, and they got their mail just once a month. It came from Alma when they did get it about once a month - 35 miles south of Reserve. Is that town still around? It's practically a ghost town. On the main highway between? --Reserve and Silver City. My father came in 1882 with the John B. Slaughter trail herd and he stayed there the rest of his life. His age at the time was nineteen - he was nineteen years old. He spent his lifetime there- he went first into the mercantile business and then he went into the livestock business. The business he spent his life in. Did he start with a store or did he - I thought you said he came from Texas. My grandfather, that's my mother's father, organized this store. They organized it in eighteen and eighty seven. And then in eighteen and eighty eight my father did the framing then that was the winter of the big blizzard over the whole country - 1888. The blizzard of '88 they called it, and he waited (waded?) for 120 days from Magdalena to the Patterson place. Where is the Patterson place? The Patterson Lake? Well it's about ten miles below Horse Springs on the road going to Beaverhead or maybe Mogollon. Is it more of a path? Oh, it was just a path, but he was able to rent a house there to store his groceries in until the wagons would pick it up and take it to my grandfather's store in Frisco.

  • Water and Natural Resources Committee
    WATER AND NATURAL RESOURCES COMMITTEE 2012 INTERIM FINAL REPORT to the FIFTIETH LEGISLATURE SECOND SESSION New Mexico Legislative Council Service Santa Fe, New Mexico December 2012 WATER AND NATURAL RESOURCES COMMITTEE 2012 REPORT Santa Fe, New Mexico December 2012 2012 LEGISLATIVE INTERIM WATER AND NATURAL RESOURCES COMMITTEE SUMMARY OF WORK The committee scheduled five meetings during the 2012 interim that were held in Las Cruces, Truth or Consequences, Ruidoso, Albuquerque and Santa Fe. Continued drought and major wildfires again dominated the news in 2012. Through November 2012, the average precipitation for New Mexico was near the record lowest value, ranking as the second driest since 1895, as severe to exceptional drought continued across New Mexico, and the average temperature for the state for the year was the highest on record. It was also the second consecutive year during which record-breaking wildfires burned across the state. The lightning-sparked Whitewater-Baldy Complex Fire in the Gila Wilderness burned more than 297,845 acres, which surpassed the area burned by the Las Conchas Fire of 2011, making it the largest wildfire in New Mexico state history. The Little Bear Fire was also started by a lightning strike; it burned 44,330 acres and 254 buildings in Lincoln County after quickly growing out of control due to dry, windy conditions. The city of Ruidoso and the surrounding area will need more than $14 million in the coming years to address the effects of that fire on their drinking water supplies alone. At the committee's joint meeting in August with the Courts, Corrections and Justice Committee, the committees reviewed several legal issues of concern to both committees, including the state's suit against the federal Bureau of Reclamation on its administration of Rio Grande Project water, implementation of the Pecos River Settlement, the status of ongoing adjudications and the need for spaceport liability legislation.

GILA NATIONAL FOREST The Gila National Forest occupies 3.3 million acres in southwestern New Mexico and is home to the Mexican spotted owl, Mexican gray wolf, Gila chub, southwestern willow flycatcher, loach minnow, and spikedace. The forest also encompasses the San Francisco, Gila, and Mimbres Rivers, and the scenic Burros Mountains. In the 1920s, conservation pioneer Aldo Leopold persuaded the Forest Service to set aside more than half a million acres of the Gila River’s headwaters as wilderness.

Notorious for his successful bank Butch Cassidy roamed and train robberies at the turn of the 20th century, incognito in southwest Cassidy was idealized and idolized as a “gentleman out- New Mexico wilderness Blaw” and leader of the Wild Bunch. He and various members of the • gang worked incognito at the WS Ranch — set between Arizona’s Blue Range and San Carlos Apache Reservation to the west and the Nancy Coggeshall rugged Mogollon Mountains to the east — from February 1899 For The New Mexican until May 1900. Descendants of pioneers and ranchers acquainted with Cassidy tell stories about the man their ancestors knew as “Jim Lowe.” Nancy Thomas grew up hearing from her grandfather Clarence Tipton and others that Cassidy was a “man of his word.” Tipton was the foreman at the WS immediately before Cassidy’s arrival. The ranch sits at the southern end of the Outlaw Trail, a string of accommodating ranches and Wild Bunch hideouts stretching from Montana and the Canadian border into Mexico. The country surrounding the WS Ranch is forbidding; volcanic terrain cleft with precipitously angled, crenelated canyon walls defies access. A “pretty hard layout,” local old-timer Robert Bell told Lou Blachly, whose collection of interviews with pioneers — conducted PROMIENT PLACES - between 1942 and 1953 — are housed at the University of New OUTLAW TRAIL Mexico. What better place to dodge the law? 1.
