Some loggers headed in to cut down trees in the Blue Mountains will be prioritizing habitat over board feet. That’s because Blue Mountain Forest Partners, a group of stakeholders including loggers, environmentalists, ranchers, landowners, timber industry representatives, elected officials and federal land managers, has just finalized what’s called a wildlife habitat zone of agreement.
