I'm very glad to see a forester taking a more long term conservative view towards harvesting redwood. The question that this video does not address is, should we be cutting trees in Jackson State Forest for timber purposes only? Maybe the questions should be how do we restore the forest to have old growth characteristics? Can we make this forest more fire durable? How do we improve water shed values? Can we make the forest more spiritually inspiring from a many uses recreational standpoint?
@mbanchero Your questions are the same ones I keep asking at the meeting of the Jackson Forest Advisory Committee. There is some positive progress in the directions we would like to see, but there is still substantial resistance from a number of people.
