In recent days, forest defenders in the Mattole forest took action against multiple logging plans in the area by building blockade structures that prevented workers from entering their worksite, costing the company valuable time and money.
Blockades were made from timber that had been cut and piled next to the road from the company's previous extractive logging activities. Timber Harvesting Plans (THPs) in this area include multiple old-growth and developing second growth units on steep hillsides.

Comment: These young activists are very thoughtfully gathering dead firewood all in one place for easier cutting and loading, right where it is most convenient! Clearly they are thinking of their elders' limited mobility and both they and their parents are to be commended.
When we were their age, 'white owl' was a brand of cheap cigar, and also an allusion to a man's penis. How times change.
