Western Forest Products – Jordan River

IMG_4022_DxO

I was camping across the road in the CRD campground in Jordan River, and did a bit of exploring at the abandoned building that were the headquarters for the Western Forest Products Jordan River logging operations.

The buildings are slowly vanishing, but the dryland sort and booming grounds are still active.
