An Oregon-based timber company’s request to allow development on a 771-acre plot high on a slope leading to Mt. Shasta is just a backup plan.
Plan A is to trade the land with the U.S. Forest Service for more than a square mile of woods east of Mt. Shasta Ski Park, allowing for logging and the potential expansion of the ski park, said Arne Hultgren, California land manager for Roseburg Resources.
