Abstract

The recently completed forest surveys of New Hampshire and Vermont provided estimates of forest area and timber volume by broad owner categories (Kingsley 1976 and 1977). However, these reports did not provide estimates of the volume of timber or the acreage of commercial forest land that is currently available for harvesting. Nor did they provide descriptions of typical forest-land owners, their reasons for owning forest land, or their attitudes toward timber harvesting, forest management, and the recreational use of their lands by the public.
