Join us for an informal town hall gathering to learn about proposed logging in the Upper St. Mary’s Valley. Also known locally as “The Forks”, proposed potential logging plans by BC Timber Sales and Canfor in the White, Dewar and West Fork drainages could have significant impacts on the wildlife, biodiversity and ecosystem values of this critical part of the Purcell Mountains and add to the already devastating private land clearcuts that have taken place in the past 5-10 years. 

The St. Mary’s Valley is loved by locals and plays a critical role for wildlife connectivity and habitat. Join us to learn about what is proposed for this area and how we can protect its important ecosystem values.
