Wardner / Buchanan Pest and Fuel Management: Community Consultation – Presentation Uploaded

October 24, 2019

We were happy to see 36 community members arrive at the Senior’s Hall to discuss Wardner Face management options and to find out what future changes our local weather holds in store for us, data derived from our Kaslo weather station data !  This was one of several discussions we organized with the community, including the National Forest Week tour:  go see the this post.
