Interfor Logging on border of Pacific Rim Park, 2002

"Swim Beach" cutblocks

 
 

One of the 6 cutblocks of ancient forest that Interfor logged in 2002 near the boundary of Pacific Rim National Park, one of Canada's most ecologically threatened national parks. The trees on the left are some of the 15% "variable retention" left standing in this otherwise clearcut.

 

 

A pile of waste wood left behind in one of the cutblocks that Interfor logged in 2002 near Pacific Rim National Park. Interfor prefers to call these waste piles "biodiversity enchancement" structures (!) because they provide shelter for small birds and rodents.
