Logs on Jacques Bay rd.

Hi! I believe that is just part of the logging program taking place around the area primarily during the winter months.

Hi Brent,

As part of the Mazinaw-Lanark Forestry Inc (MLFI) forest management plan, approved by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, the area you have mentioned was scheduled for shelterwood logging. Wikipedia defines this as:

Shelterwood cutting refers to a progression of forest cuttings leading to the establishment of a new generation of seedlings of a particular species or group of species without planting. This silvicultural system is normally implemented in forests that are considered mature, often after several thinnings.
