A logging contractor is now actively working along the Eakin Creek corridor, also known as “the old highway” to Little Fort. The targeted trees are those that have been affected by beetle and pose a danger to the public by falling on the the road. Although the road is not closed, the tree falling activity and the equipment moving on this narrow winding road will cause delays for traffic. Now is not the best time to be taking a leisurely drive down the old highway however it is likely that the contractor is not working on the weekends. As previously mentioned, active logging up the Wavey Lake Road occurs Monday through Friday, but equipment is moved and maintained on the weekends so there can be high volumes of industrial traffic any time. Fall logging and hunting in the area will keep the roads busy for a while yet so do take care venturing out on our nearby backroads.
