Our Fall/Winter Cascadia Review is here! 🍂

Read all about what’s happening with public watersheds in our region. Amidst the barrage of bad news, we are happy to share some inspiring victories!

We are feeling energized and focused while fighting back against the Trump administration’s all-out attack on public lands and the laws, policies and regulations that safeguard them. Change is in the air, keep up the fight, we can’t do this without your help.

Please take this opportunity to reflect on the moments, victories, and challenges that have defined 2026 so far, and see what your support has made possible. We are grateful for it.

What’s inside this issue? 📖

From confronting the Bureau of Land Management’s agenda for western Oregon’s public forests to advocating for Cascadia’s imperiled wildlife and halting harmful logging in western Oregon, this issue highlights the challenges we face and the victories that keep us moving forward.

Plus a special shoutout to our amazing business partner: Gratitude Brewing, thank you for your continued support! Be sure to check them out for some great b**r, delicious food, live music, and good vibes all around. 💚🍻

This Indigenous Peoples’ Day, take some time to learn, listen, and support Indigenous communities in ways they identify as meaningful.

📍Remember that you are on Native Land today and everyday. Use the amazing resource at native-land.ca to learn about whose lands you occupy. Maps are only a starting point. Take time to continue learning about Indigenous communities, their histories, cultures, and connection to place. Seek out books, events, museums and cultural centers, and educational resources created by Indigenous Peoples or Tribal Nations. Make learning about Indigenous histories and contemporary issues and movements an ongoing practice, not something limited to today. 

🎨 Support Native-owned businesses and artists by purchasing art, food, clothing, books, and other goods directly. Help share their voices and work.

🤝 Support, donate, and be an ally to Indigenous-led organizations and movements in the ways that they seek support (remember that support does not always mean direct involvement, don’t always assume that organizations want you involved at all. Listen to the communities you want to support)! Support movements such as Land Back, an indigenous-led movement to restore indigenous sovereignty, and a way to reclaim the right to restore, uphold, and protect the symbiotic and just relationships with Mother Earth and all living beings — seeking to heal the generations of colonial violence and systems of exploitation and oppression.

‼️ Take a moment to follow and support Native creators and organizations. Know a Native-owned business, organization, or artist? Drop them in comments!

🍂 Ring in the fall with a potluck and discussion about proposed federal changes to the bedrock Endangered Species Act (ESA) at the WildCAT meeting on Wednesday, Oct. 14th from 6-7:30 pm at the wheelchair-accessible Cascadia Wildlands office (120 Shelton McMurphey Blvd Suite #250, Eugene) & via Zoom (the Zoom portion of the meeting will start at 6:30 pm).

Last month, the Trump administration changed the definition of “harm” to exclude harm to a species habitat, leaving critical areas that species rely on open to destruction. We’ll discuss the implications of this reckless change, and ways we’re fighting back.  
 
📋 Agenda for October WildCAT Meeting:  
5:45 pm — Set up. Feel free to arrive early to help. 
6:00-6:30 pm — Potluck and socializing.  
6:30-7:30 pm — Zoom session starts, announcements, ESA discussion, and questions.
7:30 pm — Clean up 
 
RSVP using the link in bio to let us know you’ll make it! Everyone is welcome.

A big thank you to everyone who submitted a comment and spoke up to defend the Roadless Rule! 💚👏

We are happy to report that at least 1.6 million comments were submitted in support of the Roadless Rule during the brief public comment periods! 🎉

That total includes more than 1 million comments submitted during the 2026 comment period, which ended on October 6th, plus 600,000 comments submitted last year.

These public comments, postcards, petitions, letters, and detailed scientific and technical comments submitted by  diverse stakeholders from across the political spectrum highlighted concerns including impacts on quiet recreation, increased wildfire risk associated with roads, spread of invasive species, fragmentation of wildlife habitat, imperiling drinking water sources and more.

A new analysis by Center for Western Priorities finds that 99.1% of the 370,238 public comments submitted via the Forest Service’s online comment submission system oppose the Trump administration’s plan to repeal the Roadless Rule.

The overwhelming public opposition to the Roadless Rule rollback sends the Trump administration a clear message: We want the Roadless Rule to remain in place! 
Thank you for taking action!

⏰Just ONE MORE DAY to speak up and defend the Roadless Rule! Make your voice heard by 8:59pm Pacific Tuesday, October 6th!

🚨 Comment “Defend the Roadless Rule” and we will DM you a link to take action or go to http://cascwild.org/take-action to submit your comment and sign the petition!

The Roadless Rule protects 45 million acres of the most intact and untouched forestlands in the country. In Oregon alone, rolling back the Roadless Rule would put nearly two million acres of these roadless forests at risk. This includes Hardesty Mountain east of Eugene, sections of the Pacific Crest Trail near Waldo Lake, the Oregon Dunes, Larch Mountain in the Columbia River Gorge, Tumalo Mountain outside of Bend, Lookout Mountain, and so many more special places throughout the Cascadia bioregion and beyond. 

Take action today! Send your unique comment to the Forest Service and sign our petition, then share this post, and urge your friends and family to do the same!

Although these memes may be funny, the rescission of the Roadless Rule is no laughing matter!

⏰ We only have three more days to speak up and defend the Roadless Rule! Make your voice heard by October 6th. 

Submit your unique comment and tell the feds you don’t want more noise, development, invasive species, and increased fire risk in our last road-free areas. These roads will fragment wildlife habitat, degrade drinking water, and permanently scar landscapes meant to remain wild and remote. 

👉 Comment “Defend the Roadless Rule” and we will DM you a link to take action or go to cascwild.org/take-action to submit your comment and sign the petition!
