FORESTRYINNOVATIVE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS FOR DECISION-MAKERS
Our highly skilled team of forest professionals is focused on delivering comprehensive forestry services that leverage new and emerging technologies to deliver data-driven planning and analytical services.
With over 200 years of combined forestry experience throughout B.C. and Alberta, we know what it takes to maximize the current and future value of your investment. Our uniqueness is not isolated to our extensive experience.
Over the past several years, we have expanded our forestry business from one that is focused on layout and development to one that excels in a broad range of forest management services including high-level and operational planning, silviculture, and GIS analysis. We always strive to go above and beyond and exceed expectations; for example, we consistently take existing data and identify underutilized or previously inaccessible areas.
Despite our growth, we have never lost sight of our operational roots, and we remain focused on developing on the ground, practical and cost-effective solutions for our clients. Our professional foresters have managed development projects from 10,000 – 500,000m3 annually for various industry, government and First Nation partners.
In 2023, Cabin was awarded the management contract for the Nakusp and Area Community Forest (NACFOR). NACFOR is a BC corporation 100% owned by the Village of Nakusp, and governed by a volunteer board of directors. It’s a 25-year (replaceable) Community Forest Agreement with the BC government and operations are carried out on a contract basis, primarily with local contractors. NACFOR operates uniquely for the purpose of directing profits and other benefits to all communities within the Arrow Lakes region and provides support to the Arrow Lakes Caribou Society.
