31. This causes slow decomposition, and thus the plant debris gradually accumulates to form peat and eventually muskeg . 32. Construction in muskeg -laden areas sometimes requires the complete removal of the soil and filling with gravel. 33. Much of the land is rock, ice, muskeg , or less productive forest on steep slopes. 34. The land through which the river flows is generally flat, a mixture of boreal forests and muskeg . 35. The northern area of the region ranges from coniferous forests to muskeg to tundra in the far north. 36. This is located to the South East of the Aurora North lease, adjacent to the Muskeg River. 37. Hecate Lowland terrain is generally rough and rocky, with wide areas of muskeg wetland and bog forest. 38. Muskeg patches are ideal habitats for beavers, pitcher plants, agaric mushrooms and a variety of other organisms.39. The karst terrain often produces large trees and has fewer muskeg bogs, and has also been preferentially logged. 40. These include some of the most inaccessible and difficult terrain including Offshore, Desert, Arctic and muskeg areas.
