ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS

On November 22, 2004, Weyerhaeuser Company issued a press release stating the following:

Weyerhaeuser Company Announces Results of Debt Tender Offer

FEDERAL WAY, Wash. – Weyerhaeuser Company (NYSE:WY) announced today the results of its previously announced tender offer for four series of Notes. The offers commenced on Oct. 22, 2004, and expired at 12:00 Midnight New York City time, on Nov. 19, 2004. At settlement (scheduled for today), the Company will pay approximately $754 million in total (including interest) for all Notes purchased. The Company expects to record a pre-tax charge to earnings of approximately $55 million in connection with the offer.

Weyerhaeuser Company, one of the world’s largest integrated forest products companies, was incorporated in 1900. In 2003, sales were $19.9 billion. It has offices or operations in 19 countries, with customers worldwide. Weyerhaeuser is principally engaged in the growing and harvesting of timber; the manufacture, distribution and sale of forest products; and real estate construction, development and related activities. Additional information about Weyerhaeuser’s businesses, products and practices is available at http://www.weyerhaeuser.com.

The following table provides the aggregate principal amount tendered and accepted for each series:

                         
            Aggregate Principal    
            Amount Tendered and    
Title of Securities   CUSIP Number   Accepted   Prorate Percentage
6.125% Notes due March 15,
   962166BM5 /                
2007
     962166BD5     $ 400,140,000       55.917 %
5.950% Notes due November 1, 2008
     962166BA1     $ 225,127,000       46.690 %
5.250% due December 15, 2009
     962166BS2     $ 75,046,000       33.150 %

Because Weyerhaeuser’s Maximum Tender Amount of $700 million was exceeded by tenders of the three series of Notes referenced above on or prior to the Early Tender Date, the Company will not purchase any 6.000% Notes due August 1, 2006 and its tender offer for such Notes has been cancelled in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Offer to Purchase.
