Timber for Kitimat and the coast
We mill dry balsam: the logs left burnt or behind in the bush that larger mills will not take. Every log leaves the yard as squared cants for finished lumber or as chips bound for a local pellet plant, so nothing is wasted.
Kitimat sits south off the Highway 16 corridor, a reasonable haul from our yard near Smithers. If you are building, contracting, or working an industrial project around Kitimat and would rather deal with a small local mill, we are glad to talk.
