Lodgepole Mine near Fernie

I was forwarded an email of this link regarding the Lodgepole Mine near Fernie:
http://www.nrmsc.usgs.gov/files/norock/publications/Muhlfeld_FlyFishDec2009.pdf

The article was the foundation of a very recent Fly Fisherman magazine where they also discussed tests performed on Michel Creek where high concentrations the selenium were detected and the impact on insect and fish populations. Sounds pretty ugly for the Wigwam Drainage, Flathead River drainage and maybe some impact on the Elk.

Just an fyi.
