NH forest open for Christmas tree cutting

Associated Press - November 18, 2009 6:45 AM ET

CAMPTON, N.H. (AP) - Bargain Christmas trees are once again up for grabs in New Hampshire for those willing to do a little work.

A tree from the White Mountain National Forest costs just $5, but you have to hike in and cut it yourself. Permits can be purchased from the White Mountain National Forest offices in Campton, Lincoln, Gorham and Conway.

The trees can't be re-sold, and must be cut using hand tools only. No cutting is allowed near campgrounds, picnic areas, within 100 feet of a state highway and several other areas.
