Reforestation Experiment Near Atik Lake North of The Pas
A federal provincial reforestation trial east of the highway at Atik Lake Manitoba about 40 miles north of The Pas tests two methods on 75 acres to regenerate cut over Jack Pine stands. Chains and barrels deposit seed bearing cones on mineral soil seedbeds to cut costs and boost young growth. If successful the province will decide on broader use for regeneration of old logged areas.
