A Not-so-lazy Day on the John Day River

The John Day River, accessible by canoe or kayak, is a tributary of the Columbia River. When it comes to stewardship projects, few take advantage of late-summer’s sweet stillness and warmth quite like a tranquil canoe ride on the

Oregon's marine reserves play an important role, serving as sites dedicated to scientific research and conservation.

On the northern Oregon coast, the incredible Cape Falcon Marine Reserve contributes to a summit-to-sea conservation corridor that includes Oswald West State Park. Very soon, our proposed Rainforest Reserve will be added to the mix.

Exploring the tide pools at the marine reserve is a great way to get to know the coast better and discover what types of marine life also call it home!Did you know each of Oregon’s five marine reserves has unique characteristics, which create different types of marine habitats for a diverse array of species?

At Cape Falcon Marine Reserve, the seafloor is dominated by sand, providing ideal habitat for crabs and other animals that like soft-bottom habitats. In shallower waters, the reserve has small isolated patches of rock where we find black rockfish, lingcod, kelp greenling, and buffalo sculpins.

Along the shore, you’ll see rocky intertidal habitats to the north and south of Short Sand Beach where you can spot mussels and sea anemones attached to the rocks. It’s the perfect set up for a living laboratory where we can do important long-term research, but it’s also a place where you can make new discoveries with every visit!

Nurse logs are so cool, and they play an important role in the constant renewal that contributes to a healthy, dynamic forest!

These fallen mature trees provide what is known as “ecological facilitation” as they decay. Nurse logs supply seedlings with water, nutrients, shade and protection from pathogens and disease—finding a way to help each other out postmortem and nurturing and making way for the new generation. Decaying wood is a good substrate for growth.

Many small animal species also use nurse logs for habitat and provide additional fertilization for germinating seeds and sprouts.

I love nurse logs and always look for them on hikes and walks in the woods.

There’s a lot more life in a nurse tree than there ever was when it was “alive.”

You might have to look twice to spot her, but that would be our conservation and stewardship manager Amy down there, completing property monitoring at our Nehalem Bend easement near Mohler.

In 1997, the landowners arranged an easement on their property above the Nehalem River to permanently protect its temperate rainforest.

The western hemlock, western redcedar and Sitka spruce may now grow to maturity, while wildlife—ranging from elk and eagles to red-legged frogs—are free to roam.

It's an incredibly busy time for our staff right now—and we expect the craziness to continue for the next several weeks. So, what did we do?

Well, we took a few hours today to pick fresh apples and make cider together in Nehalem.

It may seem counter-intuitive. But sometimes, when you feel like you're in the weeds and you should just keep pushing ahead, the best thing to do is to pause. Breathe. Go outside. Get a change of scenery. Laugh with your loved ones (or coworkers). Enjoy autumn's bounty and ravishing colors. And then come out the other end, all the more ready to keep moving forward with fresh energy and perspective.

If you're feeling overwhelmed with life, work, responsibilities, or the likes, here's hoping you can take a short break for yourself, get refreshed, and keep on keeping on. 💚

"Imagine for a moment, a beloved garden, where you

"Imagine for a moment, a beloved garden, where your grandma’s heirloom seeds are planted in old foundations that carry her memory, where the soil you have nurtured sustains your family, whose birds rely on your presence, where art adorns the fences.

"This a garden that you have tended for generations, learning more and more with every passing season until the knowledge of that place and the care for that place are inseparable from your being. A place you love and which loves you back, where your footsteps are as much a part of the garden as the rabbits.

"Now imagine being evicted from that garden, prevented from tending to its needs, watching its richness wither away under the hand of a new public lands manager who claims the right to do so, by his allegedly superior knowledge of production efficiency. Imagine that.

"Let us acknowledge that what we call 'public land' is also ancestral land, the source of life and well-being for indigenous peoples who played an integral role in maintaining its ecological vitality, producing not a 'wilderness' but a cultural landscape, a home." — Robin Wall Kimmerer
