2010-2011 Treatment Update

The 2010 treatment prescriptions were carried out in the last half of 2010 and the first quarter of 2011. Two contracting crews were hired and one worked in the south end of the Park and one in the north. Hundreds of piles of slashed material were created and most will be left to dry out till the fall of 2011. In a few areas, once the snow came, piles were burned as the crew worked.

Crews slash, pile and burn small conifers and woody debris behind Romantic Ridge as part of the 2010-11 restoration program.

Some of the piles drying out before burning along Southwest Passage Trail.
