The pair were resolute: that the forest range needs to be protected with enhanced regulations.

Protect Echo Lake Ancient Forest
Echo Lake is a spectacular, extremely rare lowland ancient rainforest a hundred kilometres east of Vancouver - in a region where virtually all of the valley bottom old-growth forests are gone. It may be the world’s largest night-roosting site for bald eagles, as thousands come each fall to eat spawning salmon in the Harrison and Chehalis Rivers in the Sts'ailes First Nations’ territory. Echo Lake’s lowland ancient forests – as rare as Sasquatch these days - are lacking legislated protection.
