This book provides an accessible analysis of the condition of forests located in mountainous terrains of Washington state at the start of the twentieth century. The author, who is a US Geological Survey employee, determined the amounts and proportions of various species across multiple watersheds including Skykomish, Snoqualmie, Cedar, Green, White, Naches, and many others. By examining the areas, the author sought to estimate the value of timber and the sustainability of continued logging practices, while noting existing agricultural and industrial activities in the region. The book also includes maps of the area, and details the locations, conditions, and estimates for individual watersheds. Through this detailed breakdown, the author suggests conservation measures in order to protect the forests and their water sources, making this book a fascinating piece of forestry literature.
