Don MaLaurin said, “I know we negotiated with the Forest Service because they had the need to have lookouts…temporary lookouts during fire season that was the way the did things in those days. Wilf Archer was the guy that I worked with and they needed one up in the Lucky Four Group in the Chilliwack area…And we picked a site that we thought was totally protected. It was on a beautiful little tarn and was a huge mound of probably an old ancient {??} moraine. We thought would protect it totally.”
