Portland I think Major forest products competitors to Washington include Oregon, with its distance advantage to California markets; Canada with its distance advantage to the Midwest; and the U.S. Southeast, with its distance advantage to southern and eastern markets. In general, as supply has decreased from Washington timberlands, it has increased from the Southeast and from Canada. http://loggers.com/timber-facts/
