SVARTBERGET, ARVIDSJAUR & PITEÅ A smaller old-growth forest in an area with practically no protected forests. Both wirgin spruce forests on top of the hill and pine dominated parts in the slope. Already large clercuts made next to the area and Sveaskog is about to log the rest too. Local resistance has delayed the loggings but the threat is still on and Sveaskog is reluctant to protect the area. |
