Forest Operations

Even in extremely difficult economic times, we have been able to maintain our clients’ profitability while being innovative and sustainable. Westland has adopted and developed a number of alternative harvesting methods for our licensees that have the capacity to address site-specific values such as the protection of cultural heritage species, the conservation of critical habitats, or conformance with visual quality objectives. Some of these alternative harvesting methods include:

• Pre-Commercial Thinning • Commercial Thinning • Pod Logging • Cable Contour Logging • Variable Retention and Singe Tree Harvesting • Uniform Shelterwood Harvesting
