Adams,

I am sorry to hear of your misfortune. I am not familiar with your states logging practices, but here in Idaho, when ever a clearcut is created, the logging companies then go in and burn the slash, which fertalizes the soil, then they replant the clearcut and it becomes a plantation. Within 1 year after buring the vegetation will begin to flourish, young saplings that have been replanted ( if they replant) will began to grow and your clearcut will eventally turn into a buffet of food for local critters. It may be super ugly and terrible timing, but hopfully the future of that clearcut will provide dividends for you and your hunting area. By far my best hunting areas include clearcuts as food sources.

Hang in there....
