Our
community does not exist as a single entity in one
location but involves a huge region utilized by tourism
operators, outfitters, trappers, ranchers and the
Ulkatcho First Nations. Our area is unmatched as a
recreational tourism region and all our land based
users depend heavily on a healthy watershed, wildlife
population and pristine viewscape.
West Chilcotin Forest Products Ltd., the Ulkatcho
First Nations and Community Members developed
one of the first working models in the world for preserving
those interests while pursuing a successful woodlands
operation.
West Chilcotin Forest Product's determination
to hire locally has had a profound economic impact
on our area that has contributed to a raised standard
of living and the joint venture has invested heavily
in our community through bursaries, donations and
sponsorships.
