322 acre Silver Creek timber tract being offered in June 25 Sealed Bid Auction.
Curry County, Oregon

Elevation; 700 to 2,600 Feet

Zoning: T (Timber)

The 323 acre Silver Creek Timber Tract is located within Manulifes Curry County Tree Farm, 12 miles northeast of Gold Beach and three miles north of Rogue River, in Oregons Southern Coastal Range. It has good access from Lobster Creek Road and Highway 545 to Highway 101, and south to South Coast Lumbers manufacturing complex in Brookings less than a 90 minute haul from the property.

The property contains an estimated 2,448 MBF based on updated inventory by Roseburg Resources, who has designated both this tract and Auction Property #8 surplus to ongoing timber operations. 90%, or 2,440 MBF, is primarily 36 to 55 year-old Douglas-fir.

Acquisition of Silver Creek Timber Tract, with significant near-term cash flow from 2,440 MBF of Douglas-fir and in proximity to Southern Oregon log markets, at a price of less than $3,700 per acre, provides an individual timberland investment opportunity, or can be in combination with Auction Property #8, Fritsche Recreation and Timber Tract by Wildhorse Prairie.

There is a rocked logging road to the northwest corner, and to the southeast corner from adjoining Manulife Tree Farm via a reciprocal easement. Manulife will be constructing an extension of the logging road from the northwest to its ownership in the northeast. BLM is adjoining owner to the southwest, and other private owners include Rogue Resources. Rogue River - Siskiyou National Forest is located two miles to the east.

Topography is moderate to steep south-facing slopes. Additional road construction may be necessary to access merch volume in the northern and southwest sections. Combination cable logging and ground base logging systems will be required.
