Pictures from Past 2 Weeks

Just thought I post some pictures from the many travels in past 2 weeks. Have been to Quesnel-Likely, Vancouver, Smithers, Chetwynd and Tumbler Ridge. In the map below I've circled in red these towns for those that don't know the geography. Look much better if click on map to blow up.

Me in Quesnel.

Just outside of Smithers... came to see Laurie and Kristal and to do some thinking. It is 4 hours west of Prince George.

Smithers is right at the base of the majestic Hudson Bay Mountain... now you can see why I came to clear my head. By far my favourite place in BC.

Town of Tumbler Ridge... cute little town if you ask me. This is 4-5 hrs northeast of Prince George.

Quintette coal mine which is now closed... right outside of Tumbler Ridge. Check out the sycline and anticline folding here. The guy in blue is the mine geologist. I'm telling you there's way too many geologists out there... we need more geographers!!!

Adjacent to it is Wolverine and Hermann. Wolverine will be open in 2-3 weeks and Hermann is in pre-application stage now... need to go through the Environmental Assessment Office, which is why we were there.

Just more of Quintette.

It's been a great summer seeing more of this province rather than flying overseas each year. I'll be in Calgary, Alberta in 3 weeks... need to see more of this country.
