34. Sitka spruce, Klootchy Creek Park, Clatsop County, Oregon. This 750-year-old tree, which is 206 feet tall and 56 feet in circumference, is the largest tree now standing in Oregon, though it is characteristic of many that used to stand in the original forest. In its presence we find stillness. And perhaps some anxiety: the attack on the tree that Julia Butterfly Hill risked her life to save is representative of a pathology now quite common in the Northwest.

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.
