This is a collection of articles, editorials, and interviews by Dr. Bob Zybach published from 1980 through 2025 and focused on the reforestation and restoration of Pacific Northwest forestlands. Specific topics include contract reforestation history beginning in the 1950s, forest history and Oregon Indian burning practices, Phoenix Reforestation profiles, the differences in meaning between reforestation and restoration, and proposals for restoring federal forestlands affected by the 2020 Labor Day Fires or abandonment. These collected writings contain significant scientific data in the forms of maps, tables, historical and documentary photographs, and the writings and spoken words of recognized experts -- but they have not been "peer reviewed" in the academic sense as that term is currently used; rather, the intended audience for these writings are my actual peers and reviewers: loggers, foresters, tree planters, roadbuilders, hunters, hikers, and fishermen. Rural businesses, residents, schoolkids, and grandparents. The people who have always lived, and worked, and played, in our western forests. True indigenous knowledge. The intention of this series is to present the selected works in the format in which they were first published, including typos, ads, and even outdated or possibly incorrect information. The intended result is to retain original context and ambiance so much as possible.
