Planting trees for the future of British Columbia's Forests Columbia Extreme is proud to assist in British Columbia's goal of zero-net deforestation. Through planning we can achieve improved reforestation success. Planting after a harvest or natural disturbance ensures even distribution and allows for the use of a broad mix of species.

To date, Columbia Extreme has planted over 4,000,000 seedlings throughout the Rocky Mountains.

The Ministry of Forests guidelines and policies help to ensure our forests will continue to provide economic, environmental and social benefits to all British Columbians.

At Columbia Extreme, we assist licensees in their reforestation obligations by providing a range of surveying services.

Columbia Extreme has invested in the training and expertise of our employees to enable us to provide Danger Tree Assessment Services in each of the following areas:

Parks & Recreation

Wildland Fire

Silviculture & Harvesting

We currently have over 12 staff members qualified to engage in each of the above service areas.

Columbia Extreme's fallers are qualified professionals with a diverse range of experience in both differing types of terrain and timber type.

This experience includes falling for:

• run development
• harvesting
• danger tree falling
• wildland fires
• forest health
• seismic line cutting & slashing

Columbia Extreme has accumulated experience throughout the province providing on-call services during the wild fire season. We have established a strong reputation for professional and efficient wildfire services through dedicated and safe work practices.

British Columbia's Ministry of Forests is working with the Alberta and Federal Governments to locate infestations to limit the spread of MPB.

Columbia Extreme's professional crews are equipped to assist with the identification and falling and burning of infested trees as well as provide crews to replant the affected areas.

Commercial thinning, juvenile spacing, pruning and fertilization help to maintain healthy forests and increase value and timber yields.

Columbia Extreme is well positioned to adapt to this dynamic sector of the silviculture industry.

Columbia Extreme is currently part of a collaborative initiative, working with the Columbia Forest District and our clients to craft an effective standard of service for the mechanised ski-industry.

Our first deployment of crews to work falling for seismic lines occurred in January of 2011. This area of work complements the skill set that our employees have developed and honed over the years.
