About 22 tons of timber will be delivered to a log landing after being cut to length at the Lost Marbles GNA Project. This is the first of several timber sales to be sold out of the Redd Bull 1 Decision Notice. A field trip hosted by the USFS and Mineral County Resource Coalition and county commissioners was held last week to see the operation. (Monte Turner/Mineral Independent)
