Weekly WeatherWith GratitudeThis week our gratitude goes out to Purple Adobe Lavender Farm and Hilary Lorenz for supporting the Abiquiu News.
Hilary Lorenz - Stonetrigger PressRunning. Nature. Solitude. These form the core inspiration for Hilary Lorenz’s art practice. In 2005 as an artist-in-residence at the Santa Fe Art Institute, Lorenz made her first visit to Abiquiu, NM. Returning to her home in NYC, she began creating large printed and cut paper installations of the mountains she hiked that summer in NM.
In 2010 through a series of fortuitous events, Lorenz found a casita on Craigslist, took a bold plunge, and bought it. In 2011, she began building her dream printmaking studio. Every summer, Lorenz returned to Abiquiu to concentrate on her studio practice. Last August, Lorenz resigned her university art department chairperson’s position and gave up a tenured professorship, sacrificing security for pursuing art. Teaching became an endurance akin to other tests of endurance she has done, such as running 100-mile races and backpacking for weeks. Lorenz’s artwork takes the form of printmaking, drawing, and installation. Blue Botanicals, her current series of linoleum block prints, brings together a psychological and symbolic sense of place. The work investigates how history, memory, and environment affect who she is in the world. Hilary Lorenz earned an MFA in printmaking and intermedia from the University of Iowa. Her artwork has been exhibited and collected internationally and reviewed in the NY Times, LA Times, Art in America, and Art on Paper, among others. Additionally, she holds an MS in Exercise Physiology from LIU-Brooklyn with multiple certifications from The National Academy of Sports Medicine and USA Track and Field. Furthermore, she is a fitness coach specializing in adult strength and endurance training. When Hilary is not working, she is hiking, running, or serving as a firefighter and EMR for the AVFD. You can follow her on Instagram at @StonetriggerPress. Purple Adobe Lavender FarmHello All Lavender Lovers!

![]() Covid News New Mexicans aged six months old and over are now eligible to receive their COVID-19 vaccine seriesAppointments available online at VaccineNM.org
SANTA FE – The New Mexico Department of Health (DOH) announces young children aged six months through four years old are now eligible to receive COVID-19 vaccination, following approvals from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) this week. Pre-ordered doses of Moderna (two-dose primary series) and Pfizer (three-dose primary series) vaccines began arriving in New Mexico on Monday to clinics throughout the state, with more than 2,200 appointments statewide currently available to schedule online through the Department of Health website: VaccineNM.org. “After holding our collective breath for more than two years, we are thrilled to reach the milestone of vaccine eligibility for the littlest members of our families! As I’ve often said, vaccinating everyone provides the best defense against serious outcomes related to COVID-19.” said DOH Acting Cabinet Secretary Dr. David R. Scrase. “I am enormously relieved to offer my grandchildren this critical tool, and no doubt join so many others in celebrating this long-awaited day.” Providers, including some pharmacies, are continually signing up and creating additional appointment availability as their requested vaccine allotment arrives. Approximately 5,000 to 7,500 vaccine doses are expected to arrive by June 27 with a steady flow to follow, ensuring a sufficient quantity for all who are eligible. “In addition to protecting those in child care and pre-K settings, vaccines for children under age five will also benefit working parents, employers, and child care providers by lessening disruptions caused by classrooms that are forced to shut down due to close contacts,” said Early Childhood Education & Care Department Secretary Elizabeth Groginsky. Changes in this age group’s vaccine roll-out include a shift from pharmacies to providers. While pharmacies performed the majority of COVID-19 vaccinations for the rest of the population, many don’t often serve younger age groups. Additionally, locations vary on which age groups they will vaccinate, with some accepting only children aged three and up. As a result, DOH estimates about 75% of the under-5 vaccines will be given by practitioners or primary care providers. Parents and caregivers can register their children or dependents for vaccination by scheduling online at: VaccineNM.org and adding them to their own vaccine profile. Parents and caregivers can also call their provider/pharmacy to check for appointments. Vaccinations are free. No identification is required to be vaccinated, and vaccines are available to New Mexicans regardless of immigration status. More information on COVID-19 testing, treatment, and resources is available at our website. For those without internet access, the hotline can be reached at: (855) 600-3453 (Option 3 for English, Option 9 for Spanish). NewsFire and RainIt was just a week ago we were watching plumes off the Midnight and Calf Canyon / Hermits Peak fires and now most of the state is under a flood warning.
Midnight Fire - 98% Contained
Acres: 4,896 | Containment: 98% | Start Date: June 9, 2022| Cause: Lightning | Location: 4.5 miles NNE of El Rito in Rio Arriba County | Fuels: Heavy mixed conifer, ponderosa pine, brush, and grass Final Report
The Midnight Fire began June 9, approximately eight miles northeast of El Rito (Rio Arriba County), New Mexico, on the El Rito Ranger District of the Carson National Forest. The fire was caused by lightning from a passing storm. As of Monday, June 20, command of the fire has been transitioned back to the Forest and is being managed by a Type 4 organization. Calf Canyon / Hermits Peak Fire
Acres: 341,471| Containment: 72% | Total personnel: 1,572 Start Date: Hermits Peak: April 6, 2022; Calf Canyon: April 19, 2022 | Cause: Hermits Peak: Spot fires from prescribed burn; Calf Canyon: Holdover fire from prescribed pile burn | Location: Located near Gallinas Canyon | Fuels: Heavy mixed conifer, ponderosa pine, brush, and grass Highlights: Wetting rains have blanketed much of the area within the fire perimeter. While fire activity is limited to smoldering in heavy fuels, warming temperatures and lower humidity on Thursday and Friday will likely lead to increased smoke from smoldering fuels. Containment continues to be confirmed at 72%. Rough terrain and weather conditions have hindered confirmation of any additional containment. With a total fire perimeter of approximately 680 miles, firefighters would have to “cold trail” – i.e., carefully inspect and feel for heat with a bare hand – about 6.8 miles of perimeter to add just 1% to containment. The next community update will be livestreamed via Facebook, Friday, June 24, at 6 p.m. Read More ![]() Image by Markus Distelrath from Pixabay

Santa Fe National Forest to Lift Fire RestrictionSANTA FE, NM – June 23, 2022 – The Santa Fe National Forest (SFNF) will lift both Stage 2 and Stage 3 fire restrictions for most of the 1.6-million-acre forest at 8 a.m. Friday, June 24, 2022, thanks to the early onset of monsoonal weather patterns which have brought widespread moisture across Northern New Mexico.
The closure order for the Cerro Pelado fire area on the Jemez Ranger District will remain in effect. The entire Pecos/Las Vegas Ranger District will also remain under a fire closure order as firefighters continue to work on the Hermits Peak and Calf Canyon Fires. Although recent rains have significantly moderated fire behavior, the fire is 72% contained and could become active again if dry conditions and critical fire weather return. Persistent precipitation may also put communities in the fire area at risk for flash flooding and debris flow from the fire scar. The Pecos/Las Vegas District may be able to safely open portions of the east side of the district to the public in the near future. Forest managers consider several factors before lifting fire restrictions, including current fire danger and fire activity, current and predicted weather, fuel moisture levels, availability of firefighting resources, and local, regional and national fire preparedness levels. With the termination of both Stage 2 and Stage 3 fire restrictions, visitors are once again welcome to recreate on the SFNF. National Forest System lands, recreation sites, roads, trails and trailheads on the Coyote, Cuba and Española Ranger Districts as well as areas on the Jemez Ranger District not impacted by the Cerro Pelado Fire will be open to the general public, and campfires will be allowed. If you plan to visit the SFNF, please know before you go, recreate responsibly, and follow Leave No Trace principles. Stay up to date on SFNF news by checking the SFNF website and following us on Facebook and Twitter. Carson National Forest to Mostly Reopen
Release Date: Jun 23, 2022 Contact(s): Zach Behrens, 575-758-6303 Carson National Forest managers will rescind local fire restrictions and reopen most of the Forest at 8 a.m. on Friday, June 24, after a week of significant rainfall with more in the forecast. Similar changes will occur throughout national forests in New Mexico (check with each unit for details). “We’re relieved by the early onset of monsoonal flows, not just for decreasing fire danger and activity but also getting people back into the Forest” said Forest Supervisor James Duran. “Some areas and limitations will temporarily remain in effect, so we are asking visitors ‘know before you go’ and check conditions before heading out.” Camino Real Ranger District near fires and contingency line to remain closed. The Camino Real Ranger District, where the northern end of the Hermits Peak and Calf Canyon Fires are located with 72% containment, will remain fully closed until next week. This will continue to keep trails closest to Taos unavailable. Staff are currently developing a smaller closure footprint to include the fire burn area and related debris flow and flash flooding locations, as well as roads and areas affected by work on a fuel break contingency line north of the fire area. Midnight Fire area on the El Rito Ranger District An area surrounding the Midnight Fire, which is currently has 98% containment, will also remain closed. Details, including a map, will be posted on the Carson National Forest website by Friday morning. Other closures Other closures that were in effect prior to the implementation of the Stage 3 fire restrictions closure in mid-May will remain so. Those include limitations in Valle Vidal and a handful of roads west of Tres Piedras, all due to elk calving. Campgrounds Some campgrounds will have a delayed reopening due to staff and concessionaire needs in ramping up operations, including hazard tree and branch removal. Campers should be prepared to bring their own water as it may initially not be available as campgrounds reopen. Other services may be limited. Visitors should call ahead or check the Forest webpage beginning Friday morning for open/closed statuses. Trails All trails will reopen, but some remain severely impacted by windfall from the December winter squall. Trail crews and partners diligently worked through the spring to clear effected trails, including those to Wheeler Peak and Lake Williams (with a temporary reroute at the trailhead). Trails that remain very difficult to pass and are not recommended for travel include those that make up the Lost Lake Loop, which are the Lost Lake/Middle Fork (#91) and East Fork (#56) trails, and Lake Fork (#82) trail out of Cabresto Lake. Not all trails have been surveyed and more may be unpassable. Current fire restrictions While all local fire restrictions will be rescinded, regional fire restrictions and federal law regarding fire on national forests remain in force. Additional OpeningsBandelier National Monument
With the recent rain, a forecast for continued moisture and reduced fire danger, Bandelier National Monument will lift Stage II and III fire restrictions at 9:00 am on Friday, June 24, 2022. All campgrounds, wilderness and backcountry areas and trails will be open to the public. The Alamo Boundary Trail and the area adjacent to the trail affected by the Cerro Pelado Fire will remain closed due to public health and safety risks posed by hazard trees and potential post-fire flooding. Alcove House will re-open on Sunday, June 26, 2022. Valles Caldera With improved fuel moisture levels and reduced fire danger, Valles Caldera National Preserve will lift Stage II and III fire restrictions at 9:00 am on Friday, June 24, 2022. As a result, most of the park will be open for exploring, including the full extent of its backcountry vehicle route. The lands affected by the Cerro Pelado Fire will remain closed due to public health and safety risks posed by hazard trees and high potential for post-fire flooding. This includes Rabbit Mountain, Scooter Peak, and the Coyote Call and Rabbit Ridge trails. BLM offers fuelwood permit sales in northern New Mexico

State providing hundreds of thousands of gallons of water to Chama amid ongoing water system leak; asks village to request official county emergency declaration to enable additional state supportSANTA FE – The state of New Mexico continues to coordinate water delivery to the Village of Chama as the community faces an ongoing water system issue. The state has also asked the municipal government to formally request an official state of emergency declaration via the Rio Arriba County Commission to enable the state to provide additional financial and administration resources to be made available to the community.
The state of New Mexico has been aiding the Village of Chama since June 10, 2022, when the state was first made aware of the need for drinking water due to an unaddressed leak in the Village’s drinking water distribution system. While drinking water systems are the responsibility of local governments, the state immediately stepped in to lend assistance, with the Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management (DHSEM) coordinating the delivery of both potable water for the public and water to be deposited into the Village’s water system. DHSEM coordinated a water buffalo to be regularly delivered by the New Mexico Rural Water Association, as well as the delivery of bottled water. The Department has also been delivering 20,000 gallons of water a day that is supporting the Village’s drinking water system. The New Mexico Environment Department also immediately offered technical assistance to the Village and offered to connect the Chama water utility to contractors to assist with addressing its leaking distribution system. The state is offering every available support to identify and rectify the issue, but the ability to assist is hampered without the cooperation and leadership of local officials. Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham signed into law $800,000 in capital outlay funds in 2021 for the Village of Chama designated specifically for water system improvements and repairs which would have addressed these needs. Those funds have not yet been encumbered by the Village but are readily available, and the state urges the Village to apply them to remediating the ongoing situation. The DHSEM Disaster Assistance Program requires a formal disaster escalation process via emergency management at the county level. A formal declaration of a state of emergency will make additional funding and state resources available to the community. The state remains in frequent contact with Village of Chama officials and is working with them to address the situation while the state continues to deliver potable water to the community. Update The Rio Arriba County Board of Commissioners declared a state of emergency for the Village of Chama due to the lack of water service in the village. The declaration formally requests the New Mexico Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management and other state agencies to appropriate financial assistance to help the village. The water outage in Chama began on June 9 when the water service providing water to the village stopped operating adequately. The mayor of Chama told KOAT there is no time frame for water service to be restored. Oldest tree-climbing reptile on record discovered in New Mexico
On Tuesday, the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science announced that a team of paleontologists, including several from the museum, had uncovered a fossil from the oldest tree-climbing reptile on record.
“Once again, a fossil discovery from New Mexico rewrites the paleontology textbooks,” said Spencer G. Lucas, curator of paleontology at the museum. “In this case revealing a tiny, agile climber that is a previously unexpected inhabitant of the Pennsylvanian world.” The reptile was named Eoscansor from the Greek roots eo or “dawn” and scansor or “climber.” Lucas said Eoscansor is a eupelycosaur, a group of extinct reptiles that includes the familiar sail-backed reptile dimetrodon, which is often mistaken for a dinosaur, although they are more closely related to mammals than dinosaurs. According to the report, many anatomical features from the fossil skeleton, especially the limbs, hands and feet, indicate that it almost certainly climbed trees. Its teeth indicate it was a predator that likely ate insects. Eoscansor would have been a small, highly agile climber, and its discovery likely means that many more climbing reptiles remain to be discovered. The research from NMMNHS and Carnegie Museum of Natural History describing the 305-million-year-old fossil was published in the scientific journal “Annals of the Carnegie Museum” on June 3. According to the report, the history of tetrapod arboreality (living in trees) has been long discussed. “This animal is a new genus and species of varanopid eupelycosaur … . To establish its scansoriality (climbing), we provide diverse osteological criteria based on a review of skeletal traits indicative of, and consistent with, scansoriality in living and extinct tetrapods, notably in lizards,” the report stated. “The new varanopid is the oldest known scansorial tetrapod capable of grasping, and contributes to the growing diversity and disparity of varanopid eupelycosaurs.” Lucas said the fossil was found in 2005. “But (the team) did not really prepare and study it until 2015,” Lucas said. ” We knew what we had by 2019, then the pandemic derailed us.” Other members of the research team include NMMNHS Research Associates Larry F. Rinehart and Matthew D. Celeskey, along with the Carnegie Museum of Natural History’s Curator Emeritus David S. Berman and Collections Manager Amy C. Henrici. The fossil is now a part of the NMMNHS collection. Are you a writer? Are you interested in local history or profiles of residents living here, we'd love to include your stories.

New Mexico Wildlife CenterOur wildlife hospital is full of babies (like this Red-tailed Hawk and Western Screech-owl) and we need your help! If you or someone you know may be interested in volunteering with wildlife in New Mexico, consider volunteering at New Mexico Wildlife Center in our Wildlife Hospital. During baby season, our wildlife hospital is busy from 7:30AM-9:30PM and it takes a small army to get everything done! Volunteers help with diet prep for the patients, cleaning enclosures, feeding baby songbirds, and keeping an eye on patients' progress.
To learn more about volunteering with NMWC, visit bit.ly/NMWCVol or email our Volunteer Coordinator at jessica@newmexicowildlifecenter.org.
According to a veterinarian at the Wildlife Center, at this stage, bear cubs do start wandering around and getting into trouble a bit. She said it’s best to watch the cub, from afar – with binoculars – and wait 24 hours or so for mom to show up. Mom’s are looking for their cubs, but they could be discombobulated by the smoke from the fires, so it’s important to give them time to show up.
However, if people are out watching the baby, she’s probably not going to come near. If after 24 hours or so the cub is in the same spot, give Game and Fish a call back, or give us a call again. Carol H did exactly the right thing. The bear left of its own volition. Scene Around Town (El Rito)Image Courtesy of Ted Harsha

"Cahoone’s music is airy and ghostlike. In composition her songs are unpretentious but always in possession of some frightening complication that bubbles just beneath the surface. You can feel this complication. Nearly see it. In content, Cahoone seems almost obsessed with the ultimate human emotions and virtues – obsessed because she is uncomfortably learned in their power and charm; and deceit. To understand how everything around love and loss and pain has corners; and how they are all blindingly sharp going down – one doesn’t need much more than to listen to her songs. Lyrically, most of her cathedral work is conversational and so bleedingly honest and universal that one can’t help from cringing in understanding while listening."
