Book excerpt: Excerpt from Decay of Engelmann Spruce in the Blue Mountains of Oregon and Washington A total of 292 Engelmann spruce were dissected and examined for decay and other defects in seven areas in the Blue Mountains of southeastern Washington and northeastern Oregon. Decay on a cubic foot basis was 3. 3 percent for pole trees and 5. 4 percent for sawtimber. Defect loss in sawtimber spruce amounted to nearly 12 percent of the gross merchantable board-foot volume. Decay varied among study areas and could not be explained on the basis of age differences. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
