Montesano

Montesano is known as the origin of commercial forestry's tree-farm system. Weyerhaeuser established the Clemons Tree Farm in 1941; today the farm sprawls over 200,000 acres. Lake Sylvia State Park, 1 mile north of town off US 12 exit 104, is the site of the county's first sawmill. Along the park's 2-mile Sylvia Creek Forestry Trail, 15 interpretive markers describe how a working forest is managed; phone (360) 249-3621.
