Mount Taylor’s cultural and natural resources will now be protected by the state, ending a yearlong battle between American Indians and landowners all concerned about preserving their rights to use the mountain without interference.
The state Cultural Properties Review Committee voted unanimously June 5 in Santa Fe to list the mountain on the State Register of Cultural Properties, state Historic Preservation Division spokesman Tom Drake said.
