Stumping for the trees
 |
Published September 8, 2004
Forest Berg, with Ancient Forest Roadshow, talks about his tour Tuesday morning while standing next to an 8-foot slab from a 440-year-old Douglas Fir at Veterans Park. The group got the slab from the top of a stump left in a timber sale in the Willamette National Forest in July 2002. On a tour from Spokane to Sacramento, the environmental group, which opposes logging older stands of timber, is collecting signatures for a petition against changes to the Roadless Area Conservation Rule. The rule restricts how much logging and road building can happen in roadless forests.
