3. On November 14, 2018 DNR auctioned CORNER TWO TIMBER SALE which was bought by Sierra Pacific Industries (SPI). Unit 1 of this timber sale is a naturally regenerated forest next to busy Hwy 2, a part of the Cascade Loop with over 5 million cars on it annually. This forest was looking for a buyer who could save it. This timber sale is on the county land. Unit 1 had a big potential to become a busy county park with your name on it. Minimum bid FOR BOTH units was $1,511,000. Full Map, Unit 1 Map, FPA# 2816522, Timber Notice of Sale.
