Maiden Peak Roadless Area, Cascade Mountains, Oregon (d. kruse)
The Cascadia Bioregion is the lush, forested region extending from northern California to southeastern Alaska. Within this bioregion (and the U.S.), Cascadia Wildlands works where immediate threats to wild places are highest. Currently, these places are Oregon and Alaska.
Decades of aggressive logging have left us with less than 20% of the original old-growth forests that once blanketed the Northwest. And year after year, our government plans and subsidizes logging publically-owned old growth for the profit of private timber companies.
We are sick and tired of clearcuts. We miss the salmon. We want to hike for miles without seeing or hearing another human.
We use a combination of education, organizing, outreach, agitation, litigation, advocacy, and collaboration to defend wild places and promote sustainable, restoration-based forestry.
When it comes to protecting Cascadia, we deliver. We like it wild.

Cascadia Wildlands educates, agitates, and inspires a movement to protect and restore Cascadia's wild ecosystems. We envision vast old-growth forests, rivers full of salmon, wolves howling in the backcountry,and vibrant communities sustained by the unique landscapes of the Cascadia Bioregion. We like it wild.
