Grays Harbor
reigned supreme as the Logging Capital of the World for 150 years.
Homesteaders became loggers and hired local Indians, who had logged the
area's massive trees since ancient times. Sailors, too, were hired to
rig spar trees. They fearlessly plied lumber schooners across
destructive waters and carried timber products to the East Coast, South
America, and other foreign ports. Over time, power saws replaced
crosscut saws, and logging methods evolved. Today, loggers in Grays
Harbor have begun a new phase of producing timber products that is built
on a heritage of strong families, good citizens, and hard work.
