Haliburton Forest & Wild Life Reserve

After 63 years of service Russell retired yesterday. Many of you will know him for his extraordinaire snowmobile grooming and grading of our roads. But Russell was MUCH more than this. Russell has worked in some way shape or form with Haliburton Forest since he was in grade 10, turning 77 this September.When he first started he got his engineer license, worked at the onsite sawmill but on weekends would put in campsites, and trails throughout the property. As the years went he was integral in forming what Haliburton Forest is today.You know all those fun snowmobile trails you ride? Russell was more than likely at the helm of plowing through and getting them cut, groomed and in pristine shape. He was part of building the on site fish hatchery at Blue Lake, stocking efforts, he helped run the office, maple syrup operations, brushing roads, helped with logging operations, to name a few!He was ALWAYS the first to go across the lakes in the winter to lay the first tracks, and came in on his weekends off to patrol the trails.He somehow was always in the right place at the right time to catch run away dog sleds. We'd get on the radio and he would let us know he already caught them, with a smirk and an eye roll! 😅Russell was always up for a chat about the incredible adventures he has lead over the many years here having out lasted multiple owners and managers of the property. He is the most adventurous, bad ass person I have ever met. BUT if you really want to get him talking ask him about his family, his grandkids, their hockey, etc... Nothing brings Russell more joy and pride than his beautiful, and loving family.Russell has been the back bone keeping this operation in tip top shape for decades, early morning plowing so our parking area is ready for our snowmobilers, ensuring our crews have the same pride in our trails and roads as he does. He has been our wise advisor for many years and he is going to be missed dearly!So everyone raise a glass and wish Russell well on this next chapter of his life!Enjoy this great reel his daughter created. Just a smidge of Russell over the years. ... See MoreSee Less

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.
