Lunchtime Lake In the Beaufort Range, Vancouver Island.
I got to Lunchtime Lake at 11:57 today, just in time to have my lunch, (Lancashire cheese with pickled onion and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches). I made my way to this little gem of a lake, despite the inclement weather, because of its historic significance. In 1998 Philip Jarman of Port Alberni, British Columbia invented Standing Stem Harvesting or Heli-logging. Heli-Logging is a method of logging that uses helicopters to remove cut trees from forests by lifting them on cables attached to a helicopter. This method of logging is often used in inaccessible areas of forests thus reducing the level of infrastructure required to log in a specific location. The method also helps to reduce the environmental impact and can increase the productivity in these remote areas. A successful full-scale harvesting trial using a grapple designed by the inventor and funded by the timber licensee was first carried out at Lunchtime Lake in October of 1998 and now is a method of logging used all around the world.
