The Albuquerque Journal today published a collection of letters to the editor in response to two recent op-eds: Dave Menicucci’s piece asserting that a primary cause of public controversy about the Valles Caldera National Preserve is limited recreation access, and Valles Caldera Trust Chairman Stephen Henry’s response disputing this point of view.
Today’s published letters include a sole letter in defense of the current management structure of the Valles Caldera National Preserve, “Let Enabling Legislation Work.” This was written by Valles Caldera Trust Vice-Chairman Edward R. Tinsley III.
The three other letters published are entitled “Dump the Trust Management,” “Hiking Access Severely Limited,” and “Hire Some Real Park Managers.”
