A large clearcut logging operation is planned for the West Bragg Creek and Moose Mountain area in 2026

WE ARE NOT OPPOSED TO LOGGING

​Spray Lake Sawmills (SLS) hold FMAs (the right to log) on 475,000 hectares from Waterton to Sundre.
​The proposed 900 hectare clearcut covers only 0.19% of SLS's FMAs.
In contrast, this clearcut will remove the majority of remaining old growth in the West Bragg Creek and Moose Mountain Area

It will have an irreversible effect on local businesses and the Outdoor Recreation and Tourism Industry

The West Bragg and Moose Mountain trail network has become the most popular Outdoor Recreation area in Alberta, located outside of the parks.

​The dedicated volunteers of the Bragg Creek Trails Association and Moose Mountain Bike Trail Society
have invested OVER $6.5 MILLION DOLLARS and 100,000 VOLUNTEER HOURS to create this trail network.

These trails are now attracting ~1,000 visitors per day on average!

It has become so popular that the government is now charging a $90 Conservation Fee to access this crown land area. 
The value of this trail network far exceeds the one time benefit that a logging operation will provide.
