Having a sides milling business it is impossible for me to look at a tree like that and not try to calculate the board feet.

I read that they built tracks out across the stumps of felled cypress stump to stump to stump and winched in the others as they crossed the swamps. Pretty incredible engineering really. Cypress from North Carolina, all the way around Florida, to Texas we're clear cut in this fashion.

White cedar is what they call them. There are some pretty nice looking specimens still in the porcupine mountains not far from where this picture was supposedly taken along with hemlocks and a lone 160 foot white pine still standing.

You could fit all the old growth in the lower 48 into maybe massachusetts?

I think Julia Butterfly is a hero. But I also believe that humans are needed to manage the forest and we need trees. I think we have done a shitty job of managing our forests. I have walked the pacific crest trail from crater lake to Mt Hood in Oregon and seen some amazing woods and some...
