Just wondering if anyone familiar with 7-18 can shine a light on what's happening with the McGregor River Suspension Bridge north of Pass Lake. I see a note on page 72 of the Regs that the bridge is limited to ATV use and "is scheduled to be removed".

Any information on when the bridge will be gone, and alternate access to 7-18 would be much appreciated.

They will probably be weed whacking the ditch lines pretty quick. Canfor will be winter logging back there. Moosin

Thanks for passing along the good news. Much appreciated!

Just so I'm clear, the new bridge is north of Pass Lake?

Hey Moosin,

do you know if they ended up getting in there to do that logging? I’m assuming the headed north from the bridge?

Moosin-

Any idea if they ended up in there last winter? Heading up in Sept and I’m curious of road conditions

I only got as far as the Torpy, but they were logging past that! The camp is right before the bridge, and they weed whacked the road past camp! The Pass lake road is the best it’s been in a long time! Moosin

That’s great to hear! Do you know what logging outfit it was? Might try and get ahold of them to try and get details on how far up they are working.
