Felling and Restocking 
The first big phase of felling was completed in April 2007.  About 20ha of Sitka spruce was felled with around 7,500 tonnes of timber exported to sawmills in Ireland.  This area has now been restocked. The next phase of around 2,000 tonnes of timber s potentially going ahead in early 2014 .
The Trust is working closely with the Knoydart Foundation to manage the deer within the fence around Inverie. The benefits of this are now showing as reduced browsing damage to seedlings has been recorded by the annual vegetation monitoring.
