Important Logging Safety Reminders For Ganaraska Forest Users

Important Logging Safety Reminders For Ganaraska Forest Users

The Ganaraska Region Conservation Authority (GRCA) would like to remind Forest users to exercise caution and yield the right-of-way to logging equipment during timber harvest operations in the Ganaraska Forest.

Avoiding parking lots and routes that could conflict with logging operations is the safest way for visitors to enjoy the Forest during these operations. Please check the Ganaraska Forest Trails Map for trail / road closures related to the annual harvest, before planning your visit to the Forest.
