Scope and content
Logging near Mineral; ordered by Malcolm McGhie. Two loggers, wearing hard hats, stand at the side of the logging road running through an old growth forrest. Their vehicle looks tiny next to the huge old trees. The trees are a typical stand of old growth hemlock and Douglas fir timber from which pulp wood is cut for the Tacoma kraft pulp and paper mill. The forested area is located on St. Regis Paper Co. controlled lands near Mineral, Washington. Mineral is located 14 miles north of Morton in north central Lewis County. The area was home to both the timber and the mining industries. (1956 Annual Report, St. Regis Paper Co.)
