Did you watch the most recent Algonquin Highlands town council meeting? One of the topics discussed was the Hawk Lake Log Chute as you’ll see from the agenda https://algonquinhighlands.civicweb.net/Portal/MeetingInformation.aspx?Id=5055 . A report on the state of the log chute and steps that could be taken to rebuild it was on the agenda, with some positive news about undertaking a first phase of repair. The report is available at the link above.
