The LA Times reported the National Forest Service decided to allow logging the “Ghost” trees from last summer’s Rim fire. The Forest Service is permitting over 30,000 acres to be salvage-logged. This is in opposition to scientists and conservation groups who support allowing leaving the area to recover on its own and not disturbing the wildlife habitat. No logging will be done within Yosemite National Park

Forest management at it's worst, $$ or conservation? What a sad statement of the the management practices of the Nat Forest service. Spencer
