A look at the mandate and performance of the U.S. Forest Service in the Rocky Mountains of Montana.

In 1905 the National Forest system was created to protect the remainder of the great woodland ecosystems that once covered America.

Everyone talks about finding the balance between preserving jobs and protecting the environment, but solutions are long in coming. While we debate, American taxpayers subsidize forest destruction to the tune of 300 million dollars each year.
