The public timber sale screen for mills and buyers.
Every state and federal public timber-sale result on one board: the price, the premium over minimum, the bidder count and the no-bid sales, plus the upcoming-auction calendar. Read out of the public record and checked before it is published. The Pacific Northwest: Washington DNR, the Oregon Department of Forestry, the Idaho Department of Lands, the Montana DNRC, Forest Service Region 6 and BLM western Oregon. State prices in MBF, federal in CCF, per-ton sales in tons, never blended. No forecasts, no bid advice.

The board
The hero: every recent public timber-sale result, ranked by the premium the winning bid ran over its appraised minimum, with a monthly premium-over-minimum trend. The competitive-heat signal no single agency publishes.
1 pageAuction calendar
The forward book: advertised public timber sales that have been noticed but not yet auctioned, soonest first, with the auction date, offered volume and appraised minimum where published, and the species where reported.
1 pageRegions & forests
Average stumpage price and bid intensity by state region, national forest and BLM district. State regions price in dollars per MBF, national forests in dollars per CCF; the two units are never blended.
28 pagesCounties
Every tracked public timber sale gathered by county, state and federal, with its offered volume, result and price. A running record of what has sold and what is coming up where.
43 pagesSpecies
Public timber sales gathered by the species they offer, Douglas-fir, ponderosa pine, hemlock and the rest, with prices where a source reports them. Species mix drives a tract's value more than volume alone.
9 pagesMonthly results

The public timber sales that drew no bidder, with the offered volume and unmet minimum, and where a tract came back to auction, the re-offer and its outcome. A demand signal state and federal totals do not publish together.

A profile for each active purchaser: the public timber sales it has won, the volume and value it has bought, the agencies and regions it is active in, and its share of wins in its most-active region.
26 pagesSales
