Description: These pulpwood logs are being dropped in the sluice and into the river at the end of their journey from Fraser Companies Limited Woodlands on their way to Fraser Companies Pulp Mill in Edmundston. This wood harvest came from the Green River watershed and was brought from the Davis Mill in Green River to this dumping site.
