An increasing number of motorized winter activities like snowmobiling and helicopter and snowcat skiing and building of ski resorts in the back country have a devastating impact on the well being of the rainforest and its inhabitants.

Noisy snowmobiles which run speeds up to 160km/h are the greatest threat to wildlife in winter.

They drive mountain caribou out of their home and force wolverines to abandon their new born babies – all in extreme winter conditions.

Motorized summer activities like ATV driving and touring allow humans easy access to remote and pristine mountain forests.

Motorized hunting allows hunters and poachers easy access and camp set up in remote areas as well.

Motorized summer traffic has a dramatic disturbing impact on mother animals and their newborn babies.
