During the boom, this mini-city in the mountains had 500 households squeezed into it, and more than 2000 residents. Each and every one of them worked in the lumber industry, and everything in their lives, including food, housing, transportation, entertainment, and even illness and death, were handled through the company. They lived a self-sufficient existence that was removed from the rest of the world.
全盛時期，這個迷你山城擠進了五百多戶、二千多位居民，他們清一色為林場職工，吃、住、交通、娛樂，甚至生老病死，全由公家一手打點，過著隱世自足的生活。
