- The Book of Ezra is a book of the Hebrew Bible which formerly included the Book of Nehemiah in a single book, commonly distinguished in scholarship as Ezra–Nehemiah. The two became separated with the first printed rabbinic bibles of the early 16th century, following late medieval Latin Christian tradition. Composed in Hebrew and Aramaic, its subject is the Return to Zion following the close of the Babylonian captivity. Together with the Book of Nehemiah, it represents the final chapter in the historical narrative of the Hebrew Bible.
- Ashford Natural Resources Conservation Area (dnr.wa.gov)
This forested conservation area protects mature, structurally complex conifer forest and helps provide habitat connectivity for northern spotted owls in the surrounding landscape. The forest is predominately Douglas fir, western hemlock and western redcedar ranging in age from 140 to 220 years, with a few trees estimated to be 400 to 600 years old. The 78 acre conservation area is within a larger area protected by conservation easements managed by the Nisqually Land Trust.
