About Clearwater Forest Consultants, LLC
Clearwater Forest Consultants, LLC works out of Piedmont, Missouri, handling timber sales and consulting forestry for landowners who want to know what their trees are worth before they sell. Doug Enyart has been practicing forestry since 1985 and set up as a private consulting forester in 1998. The work covers appraisals, timber sale design and administration, forest and wildlife management plans, timber stand improvement and thinning, tree planting, forest road layout, watershed protection, wildlife habitat work, boundary line maintenance, timber taxation, and forest certification. When a sale goes forward, they put together a prospectus laying out the details of the timber, a bid form for buyers to submit an offer, and a sale map showing the land and its features, so the process runs on paper anyone can read before money changes hands. Doug Enyart holds SAF Certified Forester #961, is an ISA Certified Arborist, carries an Arkansas Registered Forester license and an Arkansas state appraiser registration, and belongs to the Association of Consulting Foresters. They work across Missouri and into surrounding states including Arkansas. Nothing on their site sets a stated minimum acreage, but the smallest tract they show handling is the Williamson Tract, the Cypress Creek Timber Sale in Ripley County, at 80 acres. Their own words on the work: they aim to "take the uncertainty out of marketing your timber" and to protect "the uncut trees, soil, and water" along the way. This fits a landowner with a larger tract who wants a formal, documented sale process, not a quick handshake deal. From clearwaterforestconsultants.com, read 3 October 2026.
Can they handle a timber sale?
Selling standing timber properly takes three things. Here's what the state register credits this firm with.
Timber AppraisalAn estimate of what your standing timber is worth in dollars, based on how much there is, its quality, and current prices. When you are selling, settling an estate, dividing property, or need a value for taxes or insurance.What does this mean? → — not listed
works out what your standing timber is worth
Timber Cruise & Volume EstimateA field measurement of your standing trees — their species, sizes, and quality — that adds up to how much wood you actually have. Before you sell, so you go in knowing roughly what is out there rather than taking a buyer's word for it.What does this mean? → — not listed
measures and grades what's actually out there
Timber Sale & Contract AdministrationRunning the sale for you: advertising the timber, taking bids, writing the contract, and overseeing the logging so the agreed terms are met. When you want someone on your side handling the whole sale rather than dealing with buyers and loggers yourself.What does this mean? → — not listed
runs the sale and handles the contract
This firm isn't credited with all three, which doesn't make it a worse forester — plenty specialise in management planning, wildlife or wetlands. It does mean that if your goal is to sell timber, you'd likely need someone else for the part that's missing.
