    The Nugedzi Lake old-growth forest is Quadra Island's largest area of intact primary forest. It lies entirely within TimberWest's TFL 47. The map above shows TimberWest's own mapping of 250+ years-old forest in the area. In the photo below, the northern edge of the forest to the right of Nugedzi Lake is clearly demarcated by shadow. Most of the forest south of that line is old sub-alpine Douglas fir, Mountain Hemlock and Western Red Cedar.

  • The map below is TimberWest’s account of forest by age class on Quadra Island. It doesn’t indicate all of the old forest that has been confirmed by the Discovery Islands Forest Conservation Project, but most of the areas shown in brown are areas of old forest (>250 years).
