Got out to check out some old growth stands at the H.J. Andrews and the McKenzie Land Trust Stage 8 restoration site on our final day of #NWSA2025. Really neat to tie in all the great PNW forest talks from the meeting with some time out actually in the field.

Getting ready for the NWSA 2025 annual meeting and looking forward to seeing attendees at tonight’s opening social. Please check out our schedule of talks and events at the link below.
