The FMCBC has sent a letter to
the BC government in October 2009, asking to close the 21 Mile Creek
area near Whistler to snowmobiles. The area includes Rainbow Lake and
is part of Whistler's watershed. It has been zoned for non-motorized
winter recreation, but last winter large numbers of snowmobilers
accessed the watershed from the Callaghan Valley side. The full letter is attached below. |
