Montana forests and their value in Montana history
In observance of American Forests Week, district forester Fred Morrell outlines Montana's timber resources estimated at 60 billion board feet, with 30 in national forests. He notes potential annual cuts, hydro power from watersheds, and the forests’ roles in mining, cattle and sheep ranges, recreation, and state and federal revenue for roads and schools. He warns that forest destruction causes erosion and flood risk and stresses public education on forest fire prevention as urban populations increasingly visit forests.
