The Eagle Valley Snowmobile Club understands, respects, and assists in managing the protection of mountain caribou as it relates to snowmobiling in our riding areas. Recently, the decision was made within government to close the Bourne Glacier to snowmobiling. The Club supports this decision and the following article published by the BC Snowmobile Federation articulates exactly what the goals of this closure are, as well as how snowmobiling closures help to meet positive projections for these animals into the future. We encourage our readers to familiarize themselves with the data supporting this decision and the area which is included in the new closure.
