Jerry Phillips: Historical Photographs
1961 photograph of North Marlow Ridge old-growth clearcut by Jerry Phillips. The 1962 Columbus Day Storm blew down 100 million board feet of young 70-year old second-growth, causing a major change in philosophy and direction of managing the Elliott State Forest.
The following historical photographs of the Elliott State Forest cover the years 1917 to 1996 and were primarily selected from Phillips' 1996 history of the Elliott, Caulked Boots and Cheese Sandwiches. This is a relatively small fraction of the book's photos, but are focused on key historical events and locations in the Forest preceding the 1962 Columbus Day Storm event.
