We’re heading East today!
Oregon’s Blue Mountains encompass some of the most beautiful landscapes and habitats anywhere. Within the Blue’s 15,000 square miles, you’ll find such Oregon gems as the John Day river, the Eagle Cap wilderness, Hell’s Canyon, and a huge percentage of Oregon’s forests.
But because they are geographically isolated from major population centers, they often don’t get the recognition they deserve.
That remoteness also makes them vulnerable to resource extraction. And right now, the Forest Service, which manages millions of acres of public land within the Blues, is revising their management plan under the most environmentally hostile administration in my lifetime.
To learn more about this special part of Oregon, and how to defend it, I’m joined today by Paula Hood, co-director of the Blue Mountains Biodiversity Project.
And as I mentioned last week, I am looking for volunteers to help with produce the show! That means help hosting, researching, editing, whatever! No experience necessary.
To learn more, or if you have feedback, guest ideas, etc, you can email [email protected].
