Last week, I spent a few days up the drainage of the South Fork of the Skokomish River in the Olympic National Forest on the south side of the Olympic Mountains.
It’s an area of low steep sided mountains and foothills that for thousands of years were covered by rain forests with giant trees. This land has forever changed from many years of clearcut logging and hundreds of miles of logging roads–maps look like mazes and the biomsss has changed form mixed Douglas Fir, Western Hemlock, Spruce, and Western Red Cedar to an even texture of a homogeneous Douglas Fir.
