skeena – WoodGrain Farm

Season that was (cont’d)

Got away from the farm a few times this past summer, long enough to explore some more of the wild and wonderful ‘river of mist’ that flows through these lands. The pristine Skeena watershed is under threat from Shell’s coal-bed methane fracking plans upstream and Enbridge’s tar sands bitumen pipe-dream downstream.

River

Perhaps the most pleasant walk from the farm is back along the old forestry road and down to the millennia-old footpath along the Skeena River.
