Atlin is closed. The main roads into the bush have road blocks, chains and are manned.
It seems like they taking this very serious.
I heard that they made people turn around.
It says they have the right if the province is in emergency mode.
The CO agrees with this.
It's going to be a long drive back home I feel
Drove through yesterday. Only sign of anything was a gate at the Todagin trail. No one there. Wooden posts and steel gate. Could easily hike past it.
We are not afraid of gates - have a master key from every gate.
Just wondering if Klappan Road really washed out ? Does anybody know ?
Just got an email from government :
The Klappan Rail Grade (also known as the Ealue Lake Road), 143 km in total, is the primary road access to Management Unit 6-20 and recent heavy rain events and a road failure has made the road impassable to all motor vehicles (including ATVs) beyond the 28 km mark. Access into the area is still available by water or air. Please take this information in to consideration while planning a hunt in this area. See below for a map of the impacted area.
LEH authorizations for these areas are still valid and the hunting seasons remain open and unchanged. LEH authorizations are not transferable and can not be deferred to other times.
Hunters are reminded to be aware of COVID 19 precautions and restrictions. Please visit https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/s...vid-19-updates for more information.
Please contact fishandwildlife@gov.bc.ca if you have any questions.
Spoke to a CO from the Terrace office today...They are in discussion with the higher ups as to who they are going to support on this issue of access closures.
Everyone needs to call in and leave a complaint of possibility of interference of legal hunt...last I checked this is still Canada!
