After the sale

Retirement of the sale area

streamSteps should be taken immediately after harvest to protect the land from soil erosion. Roads, skid trails, and log landings should be reshaped and water-barred to assure proper drainage. More sensitive areas, such as steep slopes and creek crossings that were disturbed should be re-vegetated to prevent soil erosion and provide food for wildlife. Roads should be closed to all but occasional traffic, if desired. Again, your professional forester should be able to help you in this step.
