Taking steps towards sustainability....
Our ‘Blue Pine’
Log cabins, homes, and wood products are salvaged from our Rocky Mountain
‘standing dead’ ‘Blue’ Lodgepole Pine
that has been killed by the Mountain Pine Beetle.
We then recycle the dead timber into
beautiful and unique wood products.
This epidemic has devastated millions
of acres of forest in the Colorado Rockies and there is no end in sight.
The Forest Services predict that 90% of our Lodgepole forests will
succumb over the next several years, forever changing our forest-scape.
Each piece of
‘Blue Pine’
features the random, unique, and
beautiful blue-grey streaked tinting, sometimes with red’s, maroon’s, and
occasionally yellows.
All of our logs are
dried naturally by the forces of nature, and there is very little moisture left
in our products. Planing is done in
the 10-16% moisture range (the kiln dried standards) to ensure a quality finish
and wood stability.
Utilizing these trees, by ‘salvaging and
recycling’, is a sound step in sustainability.
We urge you to take the step: “Be Green,
Build ‘Blue’, by ordering and promoting the
use of these beautiful wood products from our local forests.
All but our milled products are handcrafted by
local craftsmen, and will have natural variations in coloring, thickness, width,
and appearance.
These ‘imperfections’ add to the beauty, charm, and uniqueness.
For those of you seeking rustic elegance, and a true ‘Rocky Mountain
appearance’, you can feel good about playing a part in utilizing these
gifts of nature, and you’ll be
thrilled to see how they make your project truly one of a kind.
We offer a ‘standard’ product line that you will
have a hard time finding anywhere else.

All furniture is made from ‘standing dead’ timber. Notes:
1.)
All board
products can be ordered planed 3 sides or 4 sides.
(Planing only 3 sides leaves the band saw or circular saw rough cut
surface exposed - many customers want to feature the rough cut face but desire a
uniform thickness for the best appearance and ease in installation.) Hand-hewn
is also available now!
2.)
Please allow 2 to 4 weeks and 5 -15% overage on
your order.
We do not sort for ‘Rustic’ vs. ‘Premium’ grading of our products – we
leave the finished look of the product up to you.
If you want a ‘premium’ look with few imperfections, knots and/or
cracks/splits, then please allow for more overage so that these natural
‘imperfections’ can be cut out of your finished product.
Like all wood products, our products should be acclimated at normal
temperatures for about two weeks to allow for any shrinking that may occur prior
to installation. Please contact us
for price quotes and lead times. Discounts may be available to contractors
and/or for volume orders. Sorry,
but we offer no warranties, expressed or implied, and do not accept returns.

and recycle Colorado's devastated Lodgepole Pine forests by ordering
