About July 2026 timber sale results
This page is the permanent record of the public timber sales that were auctioned in July 2026: every completed state and federal sale that month, sold or no-bid, with its class, offered volume, winning price and premium over the appraised minimum. Green sawtimber is the market read; salvage, deck, stewardship and product sales price on token minimums and are labeled as their own class, not blended into the sawtimber figures. State volumes are in MBF and federal volumes in CCF, and the two are never summed. The page updates in place as late results for the month post; it does not forecast prices or advise what to bid. The chart is the volume-weighted green sawtimber price month by month, in dollars per MBF, the unit the sales in July 2026 were scaled in. It runs from the start of this archive through July 2026 and stops there, so the line shows what a buyer reading this month could already see. A month that closed no comparable sawtimber sale in that unit is left as a gap rather than plotted as a zero, and the three units are charted apart, never averaged together.
