Recreational activities in state forests are increasingly valued. To meet these needs, the Oregon Department of Forestry has developed long-range recreation plans for the following three state forests.
 
Clatsop State Forest Recreation Plan, September 2000 [PDF; 742 KB]
Santiam State Forest Recreation Plan, September 2000 [PDF; 588 KB]

In January 2007, ODF commissioned David Reed & Associates (DRA) to conduct a second-party assessment of the State Forest recreation program patterned after the Forest Management Plan assessment conducted by Strategic Resource Systems in 2006. ODF staff requested this second-party assessment to independently evaluate current effectiveness and implementation of the four Northwest Oregon recreation management plans, with the goal of continued improvement and enhancement of the recreation program.
