The story of the human interaction with the environment during the heyday of the lumber industry in Sonoma and Mendocino County, California can be viewed through the archaeological resources present today.

Chutes and hoists were a West Coast innovation because of the high cliffs along the coast and the lack of harbors.

I googled “doghole” because I’m watching the Korean horror movie Hope and that was a very odd translation word. The movie usage is something like hidey hole used by tigers moving from Siberia through North Korean into South Korea.
