Yes, it is. No you should not be worried, except with addled management as they phase in to managing the northeast King County Weyerhauser lands. The president has been active in the preservation of many places for the animals, and for those hunting and fishing. I look forward to the day that we can fish Fontal and King lakes when we see them in a forest, not a clearcut, and when we can actually drive to them, rather than deal with Weyerhauser's strange gate locking. I am ony concerned the board remains aware of the sportman's interest, as I see no major names from the local sporting community on it.
