Hi!  Christian Noble here. 

Degree: Forest Resources and Conservation '95 from Florida. 
Years of experience: 8
Areas of expertise:  I was a dirt forester when I got out of school for Container Corp. of America (Smurfit), then a silviculturalist.  Made a career change a few years back to raise a family and even before that time had been into Outdoor Living Skills... primitive, classic camping, bushcraft, etc.  Dendrology will always be my favorite hobby though.

Welcome to the Forestry Forum.
Right outta the box, and glad you found the forum.

Pull up a stump and maybe we can learn a thing or two from you too.

And another welcome to the Forestry Forum.

Hope they like him.

My degree is Forest Management.  I work in procurement for 10 logging jobs and help buy hardwood logs for our sawmill in Linden.  Also ran woodyards for a few years.  Still like to get on a  loader every now and then to keep my hand in.  I like our new coach and think he will lead us to good things in a few years.

For 3 million $$$ a year, better hope so.  ;D

Must have been his wife, Jen, who felt he was treated badly by WI. Not sure what the deal was there, but we thought he left on good terms.

Here's the place for you foresters to strut your stuff.  We'd like to see who the foresters are, and what is their background.  We would like to see the following:

Degree:
Years of experience:
Areas of expertise:

After that, you can add anything else you desire.  That can include your professional affiliations, schools you attended, professional courses you have taken, your home address.  Don't forget to link to your home site.

Welcome to the Forestry Forum.

Did you, by chance, know a forester in the UP by the name of Ed Locke ?? I knew him when he was a Forester working for the Huron Mountain Club (seems it was a different name back in '63). Was at an SAF meeting in Marquette, MI where I met him, and then had a great tour of the Club Forest.

I know a lot of foresters up here and for some reason the name sounds familiar but I cannot put a face to the name, in '63 I was still in elementary school!  Maybe I met him at a meeting or two back in the day. 

You were lucky to get the HMC.  NOBODY gets on there any more.
