There is another great location for burls, Exotic Burl in Coquille, Oregon.
Here is a link if you are interested. They always sell burls at the AAW

I live in rural Colorado and plan to take my truck and trailer to
Oregon and Northern California to pick up some wood for bowl and vessel
turning. I spent a fair amount of time in coastal British Columbia and
will be looking for Big Leaf Maple, Oregon Oak, redwood, myrtlewood,
and possible Madrone. Any reactions to that list? Any great Northwest
woods I'm missing? I'm nosing around small timber lots in that area
and am willing to pay for the wood. Any suggestions?

Thanks, Bob
