Almost all of the ground is private y owned by individuals, by groups or by local communities. Ownership of valley ands often carries with it property, timber and grazing rights in the timberline one and alps. Property maps of the mountainsides illustrate an incredible divi ion of land ownership. More than half the total forest area consists of privately wned lots smaller than 50 hectares (or 125 acres). Until very recently there has een little control of land and timber utilization, which was left to the discretion f the many individual owners.
