Please see Mark's message below. Letters to John Hamm about the Eigg Mountain/Gully Lake area are needed, ideally before the end of the month. More information about this "hotspot" on public (crown) land can be found at www.publicland.ca (follow the links to "hotspots"), or in the EAC's public lands supplement in the last shunpiking (available around NS). There is a lot of local support for protecting this area, including support from the municipality. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- >From: Mark Brennan <mbrennan@auracom.com> >Subject: Eigg Mtn, James River/Gully Lake >Date: Tue, 18 Jul 2000 17:09:44 -0300 > >Hello again all, Mark Brennan here from the Pictou County Naturalists, >some of you know about the Eigg Mtn/James River and the Gully Lake >proposed protected areas.
