Background
Juskatla is solely a logging camp. It is sometimes also called Juskatla Camp and has neither a residential area nor any businesses other than forestry facilities. Loggers usually work in Juskatla but live in nearby Port Clements.[2]
Juskatla used to have a steady population of only 5 inhabitants, but now has none. A few people work there for a logging outfit, Edwards & Associates.
Juskatla was established in the 1940s during World War II to supply the Allied air force with wood.[3]
It is still the center of wood processing on northern Graham Island and is currently operated by Taan Forest.
