April 21, at 10:00 am, 3845 North Swan Street – “’Upward Spiral’ – Four Woman Poets of Silver City.”
In honor of Poetry Month our program will feature “Upward Spiral" a book of poems from four women poets: Shelly Barnett, Leonore Hildebrandt, Pamela Warren Williams, and Lynne Zotalis. The poems in the anthology “Upward Spiral” evoke transformation and the power of the natural world.
“A love of poetry brought us together initially. Kindred spirits and abiding respect for each
other’s voices have now solidified our bond and commitment to each other with the completion
of this excellent book. We are so grateful for the response, the energy Upward Spiral has
generated. Timing is everything and it appears our poems are having an extremely positive
influence extending outward, touching our readers in profound ways,” said Lynne Zotalis, speaking for herself and the other poets of “Upward Spiral.”

Cameron Creek project includes portion of Fort Bayard area trail system
SILVER CITY, NM, April 10, 2024 – The Gila National Forest, Silver City Ranger District is assessing conditions in preparation for burning the 2,010-acre Cameron Creek Prescribed Fire project. Given suitable conditions, crews hope to ignite portions of the planned prescribed fire unit as early as the week of April 15. An area closure will be in effect during the prescribed fire. The exact date of ignition will depend on weather and fuels conditions and firefighting resource availability.
“Fire will be used to consume live and dead vegetation within the project area, opening gaps in the canopy,” said Silver City District Ranger Elizabeth Toney. “The pinon pine, juniper, and oak fuel type requires relatively dry fuel conditions and light winds to carry fire into and through the fuels in order to achieve project objectives.”
