98. Floras Creek, Curry County, Oregon. The Oregon Department of Forestry proposes a “compromise” by which clearcutting would be done less often on state-owned land. It is a proposal that fails to acknowledge the central contention of many of the industry’s critics, that forests are sacred and must never be totally cut lest they be permanently destroyed.

93. Curry County, Oregon. . . . the poor joiner, working at his wood, Knew not the tree from which the planks were taken, Knew not the glade from which the trunk was brought, Knew not the soil in which the roots were fast, Nor by what centuries of gales the boughs were shaken, But holds them all beneath his hands at last V. Sackville-West How much more difficult it is to imagine the origin of a sheet of chip board. As John Hay has written, we are “destroyers who are incapable of identifying our victims.”From Turning Back, A Photographic Journal of Re-exploration
