2. A Message for GEM Hikers
------------------------------------------------------------
From: Geoff Reeves (reeves at lanl.gov)

If you were planning a hiking trip during the GEM meeting this summer you may need to reconsider your plans. Santa Fe National Forest, Los Alamos County, and other areas are under Stage III fire restrictions as of June 1. As part of the restrictions all hiking trails in the national forest are closed. (https://www.fs.usda.gov/alerts/santafe/alerts-notices/?aid=19353) Other areas including Carson National Forest (around Taos) and Bandelier National Monument (near Los Alamos) remain open for hiking but with other restrictions on camping, cooking, etc. The REI store in Santa Fe has current information on allowed activities in the Santa Fe area.
