At first I parsed that as a serial killer who is a tree and was a bit ‘WTF?’ - then I realised it was a serial tree killer.
more than 700 trees over the last year
Kind of surprising not to have caught the culprit if they are doing of the order of 2 trees a day on average.
I’m a lumberjack who cuts by stealth
It’s bad for Oregon’s environmental health

You can take the light rail Blue Line from downtown Portland to Gresham!
Make a field day of it: visit one the town’s fine strip malls. Eat fine cuisine down at the Olive Garden – don’t fill up on breadsticks and salad before dinner’s ready! Stay for a couple of days at the Super 8. Visit Kaleafa for a wide selection of find cannabis buds and concentrates.
(edit) Actually that last one is pretty cool. Kaleafa has big jars of buds and they let you have a good sniff. You can buy by the gram and the quarter ounce.

The offender’s behaviour needs a full root and branch overhaul.

here’s a non paywall version
it looks like although the springwater corridor is more than 40 miles long, the section with the felled trees is just a mile or two… still that’s a lot of space for a forested area.
The Gresham Lumberjack has been at it since last August. To date, close to 100 trees within a mile and a half stretch of the trail have been destroyed, causing over $100,000 in damages by necessitating restoration efforts.
in theory, the us averages 24,000 ish trees per square kilometer – so maybe 9,000 ish per square mile.

If you’re eating at Olive Garden in Gresham, you’re doing it wrong. Hit up Nicholas or Spinellas or Local Cow…hell, those are all within a block of each other!
Contrary to popular belief, there are some nice things out that way
