• No debris from logging shall be left on road right-of-ways or in ditches. • Keep all damage to any surrounding live trees to a minimum. • Drive vehicles on designated 4X4 trails and highlighted roads as per map. You can walk as far as you like to cut or dig, as long as you don’t walk into a restricted area.
NOTE: Taking coniferous firewood/ timber out of the province of Alberta requires an export permit from Alberta Agriculture and Forestry. Conditions for Christmas Tree, Firewood, Transplant, and Post & Rails Activity Christmas Tree Requests for specific areas of Christmas trees should be referred to Agriculture and Forestry offices or website.
• The permit authorizes the holder to cut up to 3 Christmas Trees no taller than 2.5 meters. Special requests may be made for trees taller than 2.5 m & must be made in person at Agriculture and Forestry offices & will be considered case by case.

All trees harvested must be used. • Refrain from removing any trees with a stem diameter larger than 15 centimeters • Stump heights are not to exceed 30 centimeters. • Topping of larger trees is not permitted. • Removing trees from reforested cutblocks is not permitted.
Firewood
• The permit authorizes the holder to cut up to 5 cubic meters “1.38 cords” of roundwood timber • Firewood can be removed from along all public roadways and designated 4X4 trails in the Forest reserve. • No removal of forest products from harvest area where active logging operations are occurring. • Only dead standing or wind fallen trees may be cut unless otherwise specified (except for birch which may be taken green). • When cutting down standing trees, ensure that the stump is cut level and no higher than 30 centimeters from the ground. • Tree is to be used down to a 4 centimeter top. (i.e. if you cut a tree down, take as much of the tree as possible). • All unused tops and limbs must be scattered and must lie flat on the ground. • No mechanical equipment “ie: quads, skid steer, bob cat, skidder, loader, feller bunchers, backhoe, and trucks” or horses allowed for skidding trees to road side. • Do not remove wood from log decks (all decks belong either to a logging company, or is salvage belonging to an oil and gas company).
