Contiguous Mungers Creek and Cedar Flat Tracts, each containing 160 acres, are located three miles west of Willams, and are being offered as a two-tract package with an estimated 3,399 MBF, or 11,700 BF/AC. 2,925 MBF is of Douglas-fir with balance of cedar, white fir, and pine. The two tracts were cruised in 2018 and 2021. Cedar Flat Tract was thinned in 2019 with a regeneration harvest and removal of 1,485 MBF. The 30 acre clearcut was replanted in 2021/2022. All these activities have improved productivity.
Majority of the land is Site Class II, with mostly moderate north- and west-facing slopes. Only an estimated 15% will require cable logging.
There is physical access to the southeast portion of Mungers Creek Tract from Mungers Creek Road, BLM Road 39-5-6.1. Existing logging road system will require improvement. Cedar Flat Tract has access from BLM Road 39-5-6 via a spur to the eastern section, used recently when property was logged. Swamp Creek, tributary to Mungers Creek, bisects the northern portion of the Tract.
Murphy Timber is adjoining owner west of Cedar Flat Tract, with other private owners north and east of Mungers Creek Tract. BLM is adjoining owner east and south of Mungers Creek Tract.
This property is part of a portfolio owned by Josephine County, and is being offered as part of November 13 Sealed Bid Auction.
