Field Surveys @ Major New Healthy Forest Initiative Sale June 18-20

Southwest of Wickiup Reservoir and east of Odell Lake, Five Buttes Interface is the first "Healthy Forest Restoration Act" timber sale on the Deschutes and is in the Crescent Ranger District. With 7,110 acres of planned commercial logging (in a 160,000 acre planning area), there's quite a bit of ground to cover. Logging is proposed in Northern spotted owl habitat, Late-successional Reserves, riparian areas, and Wild and Scenic River corridors; this one looks like trouble...
