Short Description of Activity

Re Logging on the PNF. Ongoing advocacy and as participants in Climate Forest Campaign. Three all day field trips to the Camp Wood Area – June, July 13, and July 29. Article “Desertification for Dollars” which was shared with you and Climate Forest, Broads, Sierra Club colleagues, Unity Green Team. Second statement/objection I will send to everyone. Writing a third report this week. Many hours of research. Attendance at several Climate Forest meetings and webinars. hours I am reporting probably low. Smile.

Reflection/Evaluation

Our journalist could not go out with us on the the two July trips. We contacted the PNF and they invited us to meet them onsite which we did yesterday. There were three Silviculurists and an information officer. Exactly what we expected. Results to follow in report writing this coming week. Many more photographs taken to back up what we believe is happening. It rained off and on. Head guy took us to a few Ponderosa Pines that they measured just under 50″ in diameter. Wow.
