☆ Logging Is the Deadliest Job, but Still an Oregon Way of Life
  + stars: | 2024-11-22 | by ( Kurtis Lee | Kristina Barker | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
In southwestern Oregon, semi trucks loaded with logs snake along roads through dark, lush forests of Douglas fir. The logging industry has shaped and sustained families here for generations. A steady demand for lumber and a lack of other well-paying jobs in rural parts of the state have made logging one of the most promising career paths. It also comes with grave risk. A glossary of logging terms includes an entry for the term for heavy broken branches that can fall without warning: widowmakers.

LEWIS COUNTY, Wash.—Wendy Tanner was hiking with her husband in the Cascade Mountains when she saw a burly, bearded man lying beside the trail. She called out, but he didn’t respond. As she drew closer, she said, she saw a wound in his rib cage and a dead puppy lying next to him.

PORTLAND—Oregonians might choose a Republican governor for the first time in 40 years, polls show, as voters look for new leadership to take on homelessness and crime and a well-funded independent candidate complicates the race. Former Democratic state House Speaker Tina Kotek and former state House GOP leader Christine Drazan are running evenly at just under 39%, according to the polling average on the website FiveThirtyEight.
