In Oregon there are vast amounts of salvaged logs coming from all the burn-overs form last summer. I wonder if that suppresses log prices much.

People are poaching wood in the bush here now.

Burnt wood needs to be harvested and processed fast it deteriorates extremely fast. If burnt last summer softwood trees are almost to the point of being good for firewood only by now. The coastal prices for sawlogs are much higher than inland prices, more of the coastal logs are shipped overseas to be processed there.

Once the sawyer beetles gets in the standing burnt spruce here they wont be much good.
Many stands of fire killed spruce are excellent firewood for many many years as long as the beetles arent in them.

Lumber futures have been steadily declining over the past week. If that continues, I wonder how long it will take for those prices to reach the consumer.

Futures is generally random length lumber and often studs and plywood and other sheet wood doesn't follow or lag behind quite a bit.

Birch plywood ?

What grade was it that you bought ?

I'v only seen intear grade birch plywood in lumber yards.

Some yards can order you in ab,aa or marine grade fur .But its very expensive.
Marine birch would be even more.

I think it is the banks doing it.
Can't raise the interest rate becouse it would screw us on national debt.

Sure driving up the price of houses.
