ELLERSLIE LAKE, 25.8 sq km, lies at the head of Spiller Channel on the central coast 43 km north of BELLA BELLA in the traditional territory of the HEILTSUK First Nation. Surrounded by the forested slopes of the Kitimat ranges of the COAST MTS, it drains into Spiller Channel over a 40-m WATERFALL. Environmentalists and the Heiltsuk hope to preserve the area from LOGGING. See also ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT; LAKES.
