 Treeplanting 1990 to 2000 Photo Gallery by tim bulger at pbase.com
This was a miserable contract, as is typical with ones first year treeplanting, I survived and being young and dumb I returned to Coast Range the following year to work in the Mackenzie area, chiefly Mansons Creek BC.

In 1993 with a few years under my belt I moved on to a smaller company, Oliver and Giltrap Reforestation, and during the subsequent years enjoyed some of the best times of my life.
