“This morning, community organizers defied a closure order and are occupying a road leading to public forest slated for clearcutting in the Willamette National Forest.”
“The protest comes as hundreds of acres of lightly burned mature and old growth forest are under imminent threat for clearcut logging in the Brietenbush watershed, even while a federal judge has yet to rule on a strong legal challenge filed by environmental organizations.” 
Continued from the press release- “The logging is planned on public forestland impacted by the 2020 wildfires directly across Highway 46 from the Breitenbush Hot Springs Retreat Center and along the salmon-bearing Breitenbush river, proposed as a Wild & Scenic River.”
