Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii
coast Douglas-fir

Preserving Douglas-fir forests is a particular interest of mine, and I am working on an initiative to create a Douglas-Fir National Monument, to be located in the Santiam River watershed of the western Oregon Cascades. For more information please go to the Friends of Douglas-Fir National Monument website, or you can view or download the DFNM Case Statement in pdf format. It includes a map that outlines the proposed monument. For images of ancient Douglas-fir forests go to Old-growth Douglas-fir forests.
