The logging giant Island Timberlands is destroying the historic CPR trail that has led hikers and explorers up from Cameron Lake to Mount Arrowsmith for a more than a century. Several trails have been logged, including the lower Rosseau trail from the back of Cathedral Grove, the Judges Route, Lost Gully, Judy’s Meadows, Mount Moriarty and Labour Day Lake trails.
Island Timberlands seems to be sending a message to the communities within the Mount Arrowsmith Biosphere Reserve that their only interest is leaving clearcuts behind and that they are not interested in the future recreation and tourism opportunities that this mountain is known for.
What kind of a company does this?
