Trees Across Oregon: The Fog Belt

Because of the influence of summer fog, Oregon's coastal forests are very different from the forests one finds elsewhere in the state. Here, shore pine forests dominate sandy areas just above the high tide line, while dense stands of Sitka spruce grow on nearby headlands and in protected coastal valleys. In this half-hour video--written and narrated by Whitey Lueck, a Eugene-based naturalist and an instructor at the University of Oregon--we look at the varied coastal forest habitats and learn about the trees that grow there, as well as the landscape history of this special part of Oregon. The film footage was made between Florence and Waldport on Oregon's central coast.
