land. There is good proximity to both domestic and import log markets
along the coast, and to a high concentration of mills within the Willamette
Valley.
An updated timber cruise available in the Supplemental Information
Package, prepared by Northwest Forestry Resources in August 2012,
outlines net merchantable timber volume, by species and grades. There
is an estimated 46± acres of 20± to 25± year old well-stocked stand of
Douglas-fir, located north of Swab Creek and east of Wolf Creek, ready
for pre-commercial thinning. There are several open meadows on the
property, providing excellent habitat for elk.
An instream and riparian enhancement project along Wolf Creek, with
over $400,000 funded by US Forest Service and Oregon Department of
Fish and Wildlife, has been undertaken on the property by the Tillamook
Estuaries Partnership to enhance salmon spawning and rearing habitat
on this important tributary to the main stem of the Nestucca River. Coho
salmon, winter steelhead, fall chinook salmon and coastal cutthroat trout
all inhabit Wolf Creek.
The enhancement project has included upgraded culvert replacement, in-
stream restoration with large logs placed to trap spawning gravel grounds,
scour deep rearing pools and provide improved cover. In addition, fencing
has been installed along the creek to minimize grazing impact.
Acquisition of the Wolf Creek property provides a timberland investment
with near-term cash flow and long-term asset growth, and opportunity
for development of a coastal retreat located less than a two hour drive
from Portland.
