Description |
English: This haunting photo, taken on Bainbridge Island around 1900, shows all that remains of a virgin forest after a clear-cut and a fire. Such logging practices came to be considered as environmentally destructive, although later timber executives would see themselves as "meadow-makers," encouraging species diversity.
