Seems we are all to eager to log for one year. I wonder what the loss in tourism dollars might be?

That's an unbelievably asinine decision. It's steeper than a cows face, and drops right into the Lostine.

not only are they logging but the report indicates they will be using the latest Dow Agroscience sprays

having been subjected to past Dow products in the form of Agent Orange...I'm concerned that the speedy hand of the forest service will error significantly before anything can be done....most don't know or have forgotten operation "Ranch Hand"....for which Dow provided significant quantities of chemicals

the rate of use is 1-3.5 oz. per acre.....does that give you any idea of the strength of this "new addition"

Somebody hand them a sign

a significantly beautiful area......
