A new History Channel series, Big Timber, will showcase how one Island family takes on the treacherous task of logging high up in the steep slopes of Klitsa Mountain. Wenstob Timber is a small family-owned sawmill and logging business in Sooke. Led by Kevin Wenstob, the team does their own logging on the mountain, transportation down, and cutting into lumber back at their sawmill. …Big Timber follows Wenstob and his team as they go to extremes to keep their family sawmill alive. The timber claim he’s after on Klitsa has a thousand truckloads waiting, but his goal in the first season of the show is to get 200 truckloads off the mountain before winter hits. If he doesn’t, Wenstob’s entire business is at risk. But it’s no easy task. …Big Timber will air on the History Channel at 10 p.m. on Oct. 8, 2020.
