Re: Check out this load of oldgrowth!
I agree with the protect, but they need better managed! They should make the forest like it SHOULD be if mother nature was in charge. Take ALL the small stuff down, & ONLY leave the biggest tallest standing. As it is now, if we DON'T fight forest fires, they will burn the ENTIRE thing. When Mother nature was in charge, regular fires burned up the underbrush, & all the short & small trees, leaving only the tallest biggest trees to survive another day. Too often when I drive through/past a stand of these protected trees, I see that there are too many smaller trees reaching into the foliage of the biggest tree's. If/when a forest fire starts, that entire forest is now at risk of turning into charcoal.
