Program Description

Event Details

Jon Nakae spent his adult life working in, and enjoying, the forests of the Pacific Northwest. During his long and varied career with the US Forest Service, Jon was able to work in the Mount Adams area, where he witnessed, firsthand, the effects of time on the forest. Often, Jon works to strike a balance between an unrelenting demand for wood products and the rising demand for outdoor recreation — and still meet the needs of wildlife and remaining stands of old-growth forest. Jon maintains that forestry on public lands is all about people. Retired recently, Jon is active with fire management and helps his community with their trees.
