I worked in those woods, I know what a old growth forest looks like as opposed to replant. Most of the old growth is past its usefulness and have severe core rot! I also worked several years replanting the logged units and it's a not a "meme", there are easily 10 trees planted to every 1 harvested! I've visited several units I worked planting 30-35 years ago and they are 100+ foot Doug fir trees growing healthy as can be, and ya know what the sal-al and the vine maple all grew back in between the trees!
