Logging Camp 4 at Spring Lake, ca. 1924

(#10237, courtesy Powell River Museum)

Camp 4
The Stillwater Eagle and Northern rail line proceeded north along Eagle River, past Copenhagen Canyon and the first Gordon Pasha Lake, then up the Horseshoe Valley past Toni Lake and Nanton Lake to Spring Lake.

Note the car on the track. B.S.&O used a 1923 Packard Runabout with flanged wheels as a "speeder", or jitney.

On July 12, 1926, a disastrous fire started by a steam donkey led to the demise of Brooks, Scanlon and O'Brien at Stillwater. They sold their interests to the Powell River Company in 1929.
