Have you considered skipping
the lot and exploring the forest to
find your Christmas tree this year?
Personal-use Christmas tree
cutting permits from the Mt. Hood
and Pinchot National Forests near
Portland and Vancouver are now
available at Forest Service offic-
es and many local vendors. The
permits cost $5 each and include a
map of cutting areas and an infor-
mation sheet with special instruc-
tions for cutting Christmas trees
on the national forest.
Because winter weather in the
forest can change rapidly and most
forest roads are not maintained for
winter driving, Forest staff rec-
ommends that you bring traction
devices and a shovel, extra food,
drinking water, winter clothing,
blankets, a flashlight, and a first
aid kit. Also, don’t forget a tool for
cutting the tree and a rope or cord
to secure it to vehicles.
Tree cutting and travel may take
longer than anticipated, so you’re
advised to let a friend or family
member know where you’re go-
ing, get an early start, and leave
the woods well before dark.
A permit allows National Forest visitors to harvest a Christmas
tree from designated areas. Personal use Christmas tree cutting
permits for $5 are now available at National Forest offices and
from local vendors.
The Mt. Hood National Forest you to purchase your 2018 Christ-
is also one of four National For- mas tree permit from the comfort
