Most forest in Northern CA is suitable for logging. The logging industry in this country has been wiped out by the greenies and their Spotted Owl BS and other phony ploys. The courts fell for that crap hook, line and sinker. Just like many other jobs we now offshore most of our logging, some comes from Canada, some from South American countries, and very little from America.

One of the high cost of housing, and it is still high regardless of any bubble that burst, is the cost of importing lumber and the scarcity of it, not to mention the quality.

Tell me about it. My father logged up near Redding in the 1950s. And yeah, to hell with Spotted Owls!
