forest health

Salvage logging is not the solution to forest fire rehabilitation, and it only removes merchantable timber leaving small diameter fuels behind.  It makes forests more susceptible to future burns, and it negatively impacts natural regeneration. It doesn’t make economic or ecological sense.

Campfires are a staple of any camping trip, but if you’re transporting firewood to a campsite you could be exposing forests to an unseen threat—invasive species. So if you’re going camping remember: Buy it (or gather it) where you burn it.
