As forest fires continue to worsen, the importance of proper forest management is becoming more important. Timberlake has a great Volunteer Fire Dept., but we are in the middle of the Cibola National Forest. We have one main access for ingress and egress with the second being Forest Road 157, which in a 4 wheel drive vehicle takes 1 1/2 hours to drive thru the forest to get to the McGaffey area and close to I-40. Several of my neighbors and myself intend to promote forest management/this network to others in our area.
