Timber and tourism in the Discovery Islands

Eco-tour guide and professional sailor Mike Moore takes us out for a journey through the Discovery Islands on his yacht, Misty Isles. He shows us some of the last remaining untouched corridors in the area— and some that have already been scarred by industrial logging. Only three corridors in this high-traffic recreational area remain unlogged. But all that is about to change in the next year. The Discovery Islands Marine Tourism Group is calling on the BC government for a moratorium on industrial clear-cutting in these picturesque viewscapes. By Ramshackle Pictures
