Cascadia Rising:Road Blockade Stops Logging In Oregon Forest

This week, a group of Cascadia Earth First!ers and Rising Tide members took action against the continued liquidation and destruction of Oregon’s Elliot State Forest.

Using sky pods, bipods, road blockades, overturned cargo vans, lock downs and many other beautiful installations, the road to Umpcoos Ridge timber sale has been occupied, held and reclaimed for the forest, the people and future generations.

So far 27 have been arrested and many are already released. The legal fund needs your support, contact http://www.forestdefensenow.org/ to dontate.
