In 2007, Arc Wood & Timbers partnered with Entropy Sports to produce a unique wood ski core. The logs that were utilized for the Entropy Ski Cores were sourced from a decommissioned floating logger’s camp on a lake in Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The camp was built in the early 1950’s and deployed to harvest large stands of coastal forest trees. Since water logging was banned to protect community watersheds and biodiversity, the floating logger’s camp was recently decommissioned. The original logs used to support the floating camp are 52’’ – 56’’ in diameter and 90’ in length. The density of grain is very tight, thus producing beautiful Clear Vertical Grain stock. The logs have been well preserved in cold fresh water, awaiting a new life with Entropy.

Arc Wood & Timbers provides custom milled specialty wood that is sourced from reclaimed structures and salvaged logs. Our wood comes from tight grained, sustainably harvested logs or vintage structures, dating 200 – 700 years old. The remarkable beauty of this wood is like nothing else in this world. We use forest friendly extrication methods to remove the “Blown Down”, or “Dead Standing” trees without damaging the natural landscape, thus preserving the natural habitat and reducing the carbon footprint by allowing new seedlings to flourish.
