Title: Then
and Now. (Second of a two-picture series.)
Image
Caption: In
1947, just nineteen years after original picture [see image #FHS1225] was made,
this is how the logged off area looked. Under wise management of the Crown Zellerbach
Company, this area today supports a thick stand of second growth Douglas fir.
The trees, all natural reproduction, will yield many crops of pulpwood and sawlogs.
This forest is part of the 60,000-acre Crown Zellerbach Columbia Country Tree
Farm. (Crown-Zellerbach-AFPI photo.)
