The bass line to A Forest is pretty simple.  There isn't a whole lot to it.
To start with, we have the main guitar riff:
 
 
(Main Guitar Riff:)
E|>------------------    Eventually in the song, the drums come in.
B|>------------------    It's after two repeats of this guitar riff,
G|>------------------    AFTER the drums come in, that the Bass comes in
D|>---7----3---2---3-
A|>-0----0---0---0---
E|>------------------
 
 
And in the Bass comes: On only two strings (Yes, those are repeat signs.)
 
||     G A A   G A A   A C C   A C C   E F F   E F F   C D D   C D D    ||
||* A>-------------------3-3-----3-3-------------------3-5-5---3-5-5-- *||
||* E>-3-5-5---3-5-5---5-------5-------0-1-1---0-1-1------------------ *||
||                                                                      ||
 
This bass line repeats (over and over and over) until in the "peakish"
feeling in the bridge (you can hear where) it changes into this:
 
   A>-------------------3-3-----------------------------5-5----------
   E>---5-5-----------------------------1-1--------------------------
 
I've written it parallel to the main line to show the timing relationship
between the two.  To end the song, just rapidly plung the A(fretted: E>-5-).
I'm not sure if there are any variations on the main bassline anywhere.
I didn't hear any striking or noticeable: Corrections always welcome.
