A valley wide forestry committee was put together in the spring of 2014 to  advocate at a “big picture” level on issues of concern for the entire
valley.  In 2017 the scope and mandate was change to more generally reflect land use and resource management issues.  We expect areas of interest to include mineral exploration and all forms of land use.

The committee consists of representatives of the Gun Lake, Marshall Lake and Tyaughton Lake Ratepayers Assn. as well as the Trails Committee (BRVCA) and the Bralorne Community Advisory Committee (BRVCA).
In addition community members from the Yalakom have joined in and we have gone to the Yalakom to support each other on forestry issues.
