Timber harvested this year in the Stanislaus National Forest is scheduled to exceed last year’s amount by several million board feet — or hundreds of extra logging truck loads.

Last year, around 23 million board feet were sold from the national forest. This year, U.S. Forest Service officials expect to sell 32 million board feet.

Logging advocates praised the increase.., but they said more lumber should be extracted from the Stanislaus, nonetheless.
