Before the econazis devastated the wood products industry here my family owned and operated a small lumber mill. My uncle was a forrester and worked for the state when the government still hired non-idiots for that role. I don't know where one can even get a decent non-leftist forestry degree these days.

I remember hang gliding up at Dog Mountain in the 1990s between Randle and Morton two communities which were devastated by the “spotted owl” nonsense. We were confronted frequently by groups of heavy drinking well armed unemployed loggers and lumber mill workers who thought that we were leftists because we were hang gliding. They threatened to blow us out of the air, but none of them ever did because they were all people who despite their sorry situations still knew that you didn't do things like that. They were just hoping to goad us into a physical confrontation so they could kick somebody’s a$$.

These days leftists actually will kill people for no reason.

“get a decent non-leftist forestry degree these days”

You cant. They have been all infiltrated by the mindless drivel of global good.

Used to be you could get a good degree from places like Mich Tech. Even the forestry PHDs at those types of institutions have thrown up their hands.

To quote one-”You can NOT teach good forestry practices any longer.” They dont get out into hands on training anymore like they used to.

The best forestry schools are now the smaller Tech schools which teach basic skills in forestry and have hands on training.

I know of very few, if any, at the USFS that have forestry degrees.
