Ocean Falls, c1915. The town site, located at the head of Cousins Inlet, was cleared in 1906 by Bella Coola Pulp and Paper which began operating in 1912 but was soon superseded by Pacific Mills. Production increased until the 1960s, but by 1973 costs forced mill closure. Today only a few residents remain in this once vibrant town. Photo by McRae Bros. Collection of Brenda L. Smith.
