- Timber cruising, appraisal, and market analysis
- Harvest layout and unit boundary marking
- Bid solicitation and contract negotiation
- On-site harvest monitoring and quality control
- Post-harvest inspection and reforestation planning
- Best Management Practice (BMP) compliance
We represent your interests — not the mill's. Our independent oversight means better prices, cleaner operations, and land that's ready for the next generation of growth.

Drone Services
Our FAA-certified drone operations deliver aerial perspectives that transform how you understand and manage your property. From detailed mapping to real-time monitoring, drone technology provides data that was previously impossible or prohibitively expensive to collect.
What's Included
- High-resolution orthomosaic mapping and aerial photography
- 3D terrain modeling and volumetric analysis
- Pre- and post-harvest site documentation
- Reforestation survival surveys and canopy assessment
- Wildfire damage assessment and recovery monitoring
- Property boundary and access road reconnaissance
Aerial data eliminates guesswork. See your entire property from above, identify problem areas early, and make decisions backed by precise measurements — all at a fraction of the cost of traditional aerial surveys.

Vegetation Management
Unmanaged brush and competing vegetation can choke out young trees, increase wildfire risk, and reduce the productivity of your forest. Our vegetation management programs combine mechanical clearing with tailored follow-up treatments for lasting results.
What's Included
- Mechanical brush clearing and mastication
- Site preparation for reforestation projects
- Fuel break construction and defensible space creation
- Targeted herbicide application by licensed applicators
- Noxious weed identification and treatment planning
- Ongoing monitoring and maintenance scheduling
We don't just clear brush — we develop a sustainable management program so the problem doesn't come back. Every site gets a plan tailored to its soil, slope, species composition, and your objectives.

Invasive Species Control
Invasive species like English ivy, Scotch broom, and knotweed can devastate native forest ecosystems. Early detection and aggressive treatment are essential. We provide integrated control programs designed for the specific invasive pressures of the Columbia Gorge and Willamette Valley.
What's Included
- Site assessment and invasive species inventory
- Integrated pest management (IPM) program development
- Mechanical removal and targeted chemical treatment
- Native species revegetation and restoration planning
- Monitoring programs with follow-up treatment schedules
- Coordination with local weed boards and conservation districts
Invasive species don't respect property lines. We work with you to contain and eliminate infestations before they spread, restoring native habitat and protecting the health of your forest.
