But the greenies feel better because these trees were killed by nature, not logging.

“I just don’t think anybody thought it would get like this,” Arington said. “It seemed like all of the sudden, everything was gone.”

I don't believe that for a minute. Any competent ranger would IMMEDIATELY know and recognize a bark beetle infestation -- on the first few trees even.

My hunch is that the radical environmentalists got involved and delayed the spraying project. Now it's nearly too late.

Green kills.

No mention of replanting anything. They will just let the undergrowth take over. Mt. St. Helen’s is recovering this way.
