Abstract

Ninety-year-old stands of the Pacific ponderosa pine and Pacific ponderosa pine-Douglas-fir types yielded 53 to 110 tons of slash to the acre after logging on the Challenge Experimental Forest, Yuba County, Calif. Fine slash (under 4 inches d.i.b.) contributed 61 to 64 percent of this weight.
