Hasler Creek

To access the coal mine, a ferry operated across the Pine River in summer and an ice bridge existed in the winter. Trucks hauled the coal to Dawson Creek. In December 1944, a bridge replaced the ferry^[4] at this second crossing of the Pine off BC Highway 97 (Hart Highway).^[5] Prior to the completion of the highway bridge at East Pine in 1947, trucking was limited to the winter months because the ferry at that point was unsuitable for loaded coal trucks.^[6]
