              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                             June 30, 1995 and 1994
                                  (Unaudited)


1.  General

         The consolidated condensed interim financial statements have been
         prepared by the Company without audit and are subject to normal
         recurring year-end adjustments.  Certain information and footnote
         disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in
         accordance with generally accepted accounting principles has been
         condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
         Securities and Exchange Commission.  In the opinion of the Company,
         the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements
         contain all adjustments (all of which are of a normal recurring
         nature) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
         Company as of June 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994, and the results of
         operations and changes in cash flows for the three and six months
         ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.  It is suggested that these interim
         statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
         notes thereto contained in the Company's 1994 report on Form 10-K.
         The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30,
         1995 and 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
         expected for the full year.

2.  Income Taxes

         The income tax provision is estimated on an interim basis using the
         best available information for projected results for the entire year.

3.  Earnings per Share

         Per share information is based on the weighted average number of
         common shares outstanding during each period.  The computation
         includes the assumed issuance of common shares under the Stock Option
         and Appreciation Plan, net of an assumed buyback of treasury shares at
         the average market price.

         Refer to Exhibit 11.1 of this filing for the computation of average
         common shares outstanding and earnings per share.

4.  Debt

         During the second quarter of 1995, the Company modified its unsecured
         revolving-credit agreement.  The primary results of this modification
         were to increase the revolving credit from $75 million to $100 million
         and to extend the agreement one year through June of 1998.  As of June
         30, 1995 and December 31, 1994, the Company had $65 million
         outstanding under this agreement.

                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Losses in both the wood products and pulp and paper products segments
combined to produce a second quarter 1995 loss for Pope & Talbot (the
"Company") of $9.0 million, or $.68 per share.  The second quarter 1995 loss
was worse than both the first quarter 1995 loss of $1.2 million, or $.09 per
share, and the second quarter 1994 income of $2.8 million, or $.21 per share.
Second quarter 1995 revenues were essentially unchanged from the second quarter
of 1994, although in the second quarter of 1995, as in the first quarter of
1995, the mix of sales between the Company's two segments changed from year to
year.  In the wood products segment, lumber sales declined as a result of lower
volumes caused by less timber availability in Canada and lower prices.  In the
pulp and paper segment, tissue and diaper revenues declined although pulp
revenues climbed on substantially higher pulp pricing resulting in increased
revenues for this segment.

         The wood products segment, which comprised approximately 39 percent of
second quarter sales, produced a loss of $2.5 million, the first quarterly loss
since the fourth quarter of 1991.  Following a very strong 1994 first quarter,
decreasing sales prices and rising log costs have resulted in steadily eroding
profits.  The second quarter 1995 loss compares to earnings of $12.8 million in
the second quarter of 1994 and $2.9 million in the first quarter of 1995.
Lumber prices peaked in the first quarter of 1994 and then declined steadily
throughout the remainder of 1994 and continued to decline into 1995.  Lumber
prices for a majority of the Company's production reached their lowest point
since 1992 in June of 1995.  Overall, sales prices for the Company's lumber in
the second quarter of 1995 averaged 17 percent below the second quarter 1994
prices and 10 percent below the first quarter 1995 prices.  In mid 1994, the
Provincial Government of British Columbia revised the prices charged for
Canadian timber, where the Company has approximately 60 percent of its lumber
capacity.  Primarily as a result of this change, log costs in Canada were
approximately $7 million higher in the second quarter of 1995 than the second
quarter of 1994.

         Lumber sales volume decreased slightly to 162 million board feet in
the second quarter of 1995, or approximately 90 percent of 1995 capacity, from
168 million board feet in the second quarter of 1994, or approximately 85
percent of 1994 capacity.  Effective January 1, 1995, the Company reduced its
Grand Forks, British Columbia sawmill to a one-shift basis as a result of
reduced timber harvest levels allowed by the British Columbia government.  The
effect of this lower timber supply will be to reduce the Company's annual
lumber production capacity from 1994 levels by approximately 8 percent, or 60
million board feet.  During the second quarter of 1995, the Port Gamble sawmill
operated on a curtailed basis while the Company's other sawmills operated
essentially at capacity.  The Port Gamble sawmill operates in the high-cost
timber area of the Olympic Peninsula of Washington, and has operated on a
curtailed basis or has been shut down for much of the last year as a result of
a lack of acceptably priced


                                       6
<PAGE>   8

timber in relation to end-product prices.  The Port Gamble sawmill was shut
down for much of the second quarter, and when opened, operated on a curtailed,
one-shift basis to process existing log supplies.  This mill competes with
other sawmills located in its area and the export log market for timber and
will only be able to operate if acceptably priced timber is available.  During
the second quarter of 1994, operating inefficiencies in the Canadian sawmills
caused by poor log quality and curtailed production at the Port Gamble sawmill
resulted in production rates that were only at 85 percent of capacity.

         The pulp and paper segment lost $6.8 million in the second quarter of
1995, which was greater than the $3.5 million loss in the second
quarter of 1994.  During the first quarter of 1995, this segment produced a
$900,000 profit.  A strong pulp market reversed losses in the Company's pulp
business during 1994 and allowed the pulp business to return to profitability
in 1995.  However, the strength of the pulp business was offset by competitive
market conditions, higher fluff pulp and wastepaper prices for tissue and
diapers and strike related costs at the Company's Ransom tissue mill which
resulted in the second quarter 1995 losses.

         World pulp prices continued the increase started in early 1994 into
the second quarter of 1995 resulting in further strengthening in the Company's
pulp business.  Pulp losses declined steadily throughout 1994 and the Company's
pulp business, which comprised 23 percent of second quarter sales, returned to
profitability in the fourth quarter of 1994.  The world pulp market has seen a
substantial improvement since the beginning of 1994, with pricing for a
standard grade of bleached softwood pulp selling at the end of the second
quarter of 1995 for more than double its December 1993 price.  However, prices
for wood chips, a primary raw material for pulp production, have increased
approximately 40 percent in the second quarter of 1995 over the second quarter
of 1994 as some Pacific Northwest sawmills have curtailed production as a
result of the poor lumber markets.  To expand the source of fiber for the
Halsey pulp mill, the Company in 1994 began using sawdust as an additional
fiber source.  Sawdust is currently in adequate supply and has not increased in
price as wood chips have.  During the second quarter of 1995 approximately 33
percent of the Halsey pulp mill's production was from sawdust.  During the
second quarter and first half of 1995, the Halsey pulp mill operated at
capacity.  The losses in the second quarter of 1994 were due primarily to
volume shipped under pricing arrangements which were below then-current
industry pricing.  Those contracts expired later in 1994.

         The Company's tissue business, which comprised approximately 16
percent of second quarter sales, again incurred a significant loss in the
second quarter of 1995.  The Company's tissue business has incurred increasing
losses since 1992.  Company tissue pricing improved approximately 11 percent
during the 1995 second quarter from essentially flat pricing in 1994.  The 1995
price increases reflect the first general price increase since 1990.  Although
tissue pricing has improved, higher costs for wastepaper, the primary raw
material component, have outpaced the sales price improvements.  Wastepaper
pricing, which generally follows the pricing trends of world pulp markets, has
been pushed to record levels by a combination of strong pulp markets and a
shortage of certain wastepaper grades caused primarily by the start-up in 1994
of new recycled fiber mills in the United States.  As a result of these
pressures, the Company's wastepaper prices have nearly tripled since the second 
quarter of 1994.  During the second quarter of 1995, wastepaper prices began 
to stabilize and slightly decline for certain grades.  It is not clear at this 
time if this price stability is temporary or will continue longer term.

         The tissue market has been, and continues to be, extremely
competitive.  Two of the Company's smaller competitors in the private label
tissue industry have gone out of business in 1995.  The Company's Ransom tissue
mill has been incurring losses and to reduce these losses the Company
implemented a labor contract having a revised, lower compensation structure for
the Ransom tissue mill employees early in the second quarter of this year.  The
union employees went on strike over this wage structure implementation and
except for a minor amount of production being performed by salaried and
temporary workers, the mill is shut down.  The long-term viability of this mill
is uncertain unless a combination of lower wage rates, lower other
manufacturing costs, including raw materials, and higher sales prices make it
advantageous to re-open the mill.  Ransom represents approximately 50 percent
of the Company's tissue volume, and although sales volumes have been reduced as
a result of the strike, because of relatively low tissue pricing and high
wastepaper costs, this loss of volume has not significantly increased tissue
losses.  Tissue results were negatively affected in the second quarter of 1995,
however, as higher costs for repackaging and shipping were incurred to supply
some of the Company's East Coast customers.  The Company anticipates it will
implement further tissue price increases during the third quarter of 1995,
although no assurances can be given that such tissue price increases will
become effective.  Additionally, the increases in wastepaper prices appear to
be moderating somewhat.  However, even with more stable wastepaper prices and
higher tissue prices, without a substantial change in industry pricing for
tissue, or a lowering of wastepaper costs, it is anticipated the Company's
tissue business will continue to reflect losses.

         The Company's diaper business, which comprised approximately 21
percent of second quarter sales, incurred a loss in the second quarter 1995
compared to the second quarter of 1994, when diapers produced a small profit.
Procter & Gamble, a significant producer of disposable diapers, continued to
attempt to gain market share through aggressive pricing.  Although diaper
prices for the Company were unchanged from the first quarter of 1995, sales
volumes were down approximately 12 percent from the same period.  Prices in the
second quarter of 1995 were, however, 4 percent lower than the second quarter
of 1994.  During the first quarter, branded producers of diapers instituted
package count reductions and revised pricing, however, the Company did not
complete this conversion until the second quarter of 1995, lowering sales
volume and increasing costs to revise packaging.  Although no assurances can be
given, it is anticipated that with the package count reduction complete, diaper
volumes will improve in the third quarter.  Diaper sales volumes were
approximately 70 percent of capacity in the second quarter.  In addition to
price and volume pressures, another significant factor in the diaper losses has
been increasing fluff pulp costs.  Costs for fluff pulp have not risen as fast
as the world pulp market, but are still 60 percent higher than the second
quarter of 1994.  The Company anticipates that pulp markets will continue to
strengthen during the remainder of 1995 and anticipates that fluff pulp costs
also will continue to increase.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         During the first half of 1995, operations generated cash of $1.2
million and for the second quarter of 1995 generated cash of $9.0 million.
Income before non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization generated
$11.3 million of cash during the first six months.  Seasonal reductions in log
inventories and an effort to reduce inventories generated cash in 1995 of $26.9
million, all of which occurred in the second quarter.  Cash was used as
accounts payable and accrued liabilities declined $18.3 million in 1995, again
all in the second quarter, due to the timing of payments.

         Capital spending for the first half of 1995 was $18.5 million, of
which $11.9 was related to continuing progress on a project to modernize the
recycled pulping operations at the Eau Claire tissue facility.  In 1994, the
Company obtained restricted funding to finance this pulp modernization project.
The remaining expenditures were various smaller projects to sustain existing
operations.  It is estimated that approximately $7.0 million will be required
to complete previously approved projects, the most significant of which is the
completion of the Eau Claire pulping modernization.  The Company anticipates
that additional projects will be undertaken in 1995, primarily to sustain
existing operations.  It is anticipated that capital spending in the remainder
of the year will be financed from the remaining $5.8 million of restricted bond
funds, internally generated cash and, if necessary, from the Company's lines of
credit.

         During the second quarter, the Company renegotiated its long-term
revolving-credit agreement resulting in an increase in the commitment from $75
million up to $100 million and a one-year extension through June 1998.  The
Company now has available $126 million in short- and long-term lines of credit,
of which $91 million was outstanding at June 30, 1995.

                        EXTENSION/MODIFICATION AGREEMENT

                 This extension/modification agreement is dated as of June 30,
1995, and is among POPE & TALBOT, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Borrower"),
UNITED STATES NATIONAL BANK OF OREGON ("U.S. Bank"), CIBC INC. ("CIBC"), ABN
AMRO BANK N.V. ("ABN"), BANK OF AMERICA ILLINOIS, fka CONTINENTAL BANK ("BAI"),
and WACHOVIA BANK OF GEORGIA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION ("Wachovia").

                                    Recitals

                 A.  U.S. Bank, CIBC, ABN, BAI, and Wachovia ("Banks") and
Borrower are parties to a credit agreement dated as of May 6, 1992, as modified
in October, 1992, in June, 1993, June, 1994, October, 1994, and December, 1994
(the "Credit Agreement").  The capitalized words and phrases that are not
defined in this modification agreement have the same meanings as are given to
those words and phrases in the Credit Agreement.

                 B.  Borrower and Banks desire to modify the terms of the
Credit Agreement to extend the Expiry Date, increase the Aggregate Commitment
by $25,000,000, change the Leverage Ratio on a temporary basis, and modify the
pricing grid established in the modification agreement dated as of December 31,
1994.  Because of the increase in the Aggregate Commitment, Borrower will issue
new Notes to Banks.

                 NOW, THEREFORE, for value, it is agreed that effective as of
the date of this agreement:

1.       Extension of Expiry Date.  The Expiry Date is extended pursuant to
         Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement to June 30, 1998.

2.       Increase in Aggregate Commitment and Individual Commitments.  The
         maximum Aggregate Commitment is hereby increased to $100,000,000.  The
         Individual Commitment of each Bank is $32,000,000 for U.S. Bank,
         $20,000,000 for CIBC, $20,000,000 for ABN, $16,000,000 for Wachovia,
         and $12,000,000 for BAI unless and until ratably reduced under Section
         2.16 of the Credit Agreement.  Borrower promises and agrees to
         promptly issue new Notes to Banks and each Bank promises and agrees to
         surrender its existing Note to Borrower when it receives its new Note.

3.       Leverage Ratio.  Section 5.01(h) of the Credit Agreement is modified
         to require Borrower to maintain on a consolidated basis a Leverage
         Ratio of not more than 1.2 to 1.0 at all times from the date of this
         extension/modification agreement through March 31, 1996, and of not
         more than 1.0 to 1.0 at all times thereafter.

4.       Additional Pricing Row.  The pricing matrix for the Interbank Rate
         margin, Commitment Fee, and Unused Fee payable by Borrower introduced
         in the modification agreement dated as of December 31, 1994, is
         modified by adding the row for a leverage ratio of more than 1.0 to
         1.0 shown in the following table:

</TABLE>


         The Interbank margin, the Commitment Fee, and the Unused Fee payable
         by Borrower will be determined quarterly and put into effect as of the
         date upon which Borrower delivers its quarterly compliance certificate
         to Agent.  The margin and fees will be based on the Leverage Ratio
         disclosed in such compliance certificate and the foregoing margin.
         The applicable margin and fees will remain as determined until the
         next quarterly compliance certificate is delivered.

5.       Miscellaneous.  The parties agree to issue any additional documents
         and instruments reasonably necessary to effectuate the objectives of
         this extension/modification agreement.  The Loan Documents will
         continue in full force and effect as modified by this
         extension/modification agreement.  This extension/modification
         agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts but all such
         counterparts will constitute but one agreement.  The Loan Documents,
         as modified by this extension/modification agreement, are intended to
         be the complete, final, and exclusive statement of the terms upon
         which Banks made their Individual Commitments to Borrower and Borrower
         promised to repay Loans.
