A cutblock in Dakota Bowl on the slopes of Mount Elphinstone, where the existence of 77 culturally modified trees (CMT) was recently confirmed, has been removed from the BC Timber Sales (BCTS) auction list for harvest in 2021.
Powell River-Sunshine Coast MLA Nicholas Simons said in a Facebook post last week that he had “confirmed that TSL A87126 Dakota Bowl is no longer scheduled for sale as published in the 2020 operating plan."
