  • The forest in this image was once unhealthy. Fire suppression caused the trees to grow very close to one another. (See some of the "dog hair" images in this album). Now it's one of the most pristine restored forests in the Colville. See, environmental groups will fight national forest timbers sales that go into unhealthy forests and take ALL the trees. Most timber sales won't make a distinction between unhealthy trees, old growth, secondary growth, healthy trees, etc. But making this distinction, working together for the greater good, can leave a healthy forest behind after some, but not all, timber has been extracted.

  • The Backcountry Horsemen is a nation-wide group of advocates who work to ensure that public land, such as national forests, is open to horses and their riders. Since the forest service doesn't have the money to maintain all of the trails in the Colville National Forest, the Backcountry Horsemen of Ferry County are a key group of volunteers that maintain the trails. Without horses it would be nearly impossible to hand-carry the equipment necessary to do the work. The five-mile Edds Mountain trail was littered with fallen trees killed by fire. The group has been working on the trail for three years. I hiked to the top were the Backcountry Horsemen and Conservation Northwest, a nonprofit environmental group, teamed up to work on the trail.<br />

George Young, president of the Ferry Country chapter of the BCH, removes the debris cut by Terry (who declined to give his last name). These members of the Ferry County chapter are not a proponent of wilderness. One reason is because they would have to do the same work with hand saws instead of chainsaws, since machines are forbidden in designated wilderness areas. Edds Mountain is within a "roadless" area. The area is managed as wilderness but is not fully protected like a designated wilderness.

  • Volunteers and employees from Conservation Northwest use hand tools to cut a trail into a grassy slope, helping the BCH restore the Edds Mountain trail for both horses and hikers. In an attempt to develop a relationship between the two groups, CN volunteered to help the Ferry County BCH maintain the trail.

  • Ernie Lieseke is full time contract logger out of Rice, Washington near Kettle Falls. He's been doing it for 25 years. Much of his work is on private land where he removes specific trees determined by the owner to get maximum value from the wood, and production from trees on the property. This tree, although large, was deemed expendable because it had produced numerous saplings that can take its place.

  • Fresh off 26 days in the wilderness felling trees, Spencer Bell packs his chainsaws to head for home. Bell cut trees for Nova Gold Resources, Inc., clearing a path to a 245,000-acre mine in Canada’s Stikine Gold Belt. Of the Haida Nation, Bell earned $500 a day with Nova Gold. Bell said he uses part of his income to send his sister to college.
