Being private land, people typically buy season or multi-day recreation passes. Although pilots fly in, it’s recommended to purchase a pass for the privilege of recreating on this land.
There are several airstrips, originally created by paper companies for ag planes spraying the timber for spruce budworm. “These strips could be critical in the future because the budworm is encroaching from Canada,” Rowe pointed out.
“Steve Mason and I have our eyes on several other strips,” Rowe added, “some with even better recreational offerings.”
