Kaslo / Bjerkness-Fletcher

This management unit is comprised of a socially and geographically highly diverse 20 percent of the KDCFS license (K3C) area and borders the Village of Kaslo and its supporting infrastructures. Adjoining forest licensees are: BC Timber Sales to the West and Woodlot 494 to the South.

Kootenay Lake forms its eastern boundary at 535m elevation. The landscape rises in glaciated, stepped benches from the lake up to Mt. Buchanan at 1910m and has an even proportion of steep cable versus conventional harvesting options. Easterly and hot southerly slopes prevail that are populated with warm and light loving flora commonly referred to as the ‘Kootenay mix’. Due to urban proximity this unit contains a dense network of hiking, mountain biking and motorized trails. The Mt. Buchanan Recreation Area, an approximately 3 square kilometer internal recreation tenure is also found here, including several recreational huts and cross country ski trails. Forest management requires ongoing community, government and wider stakeholder consultation. Integrated land use builds on innovative solutions and highly skilled operators to achieve mutual benefits.
