Calculating Steps and Paces

Steps Number of Feet ÷ Number of Steps = Step Length

100 feet ÷ 40 steps = 2½ feet (Mr. Futral's step length)

Paces1 pace = 2 steps

number of feet ÷ number of paces = pace length 100 feet ÷ 20 paces = 5 feet (Mr. Futral's pace length)

Alabama has the third most timberland acreage in the 48 contiguous states, behind only Georgia and Oregon.

As far as private timberland acreage is concerned, Alabama ranks second behind Georgia.

77% of timberland acreage is owned by non-industrial private landowners.

The forest industry is the state’s largest manufacturing industry, producing an estimated $15.39 billion worth of products in 2005.

There are approximately 850 active forest products manufacturing operations in the state.

Over 48,000 people are directly employed with forest-based companies and 100,000 people are indirectly dependent upon the forest industry.
