an amazing summer as well we have been experiencing although when it does rain it has been heavy and with a lot of unusual heavy thunder..
Thanks for the memories, Doug. 40 years ago I helped my dad weld grousers onto a D8 on the shores of Bennet Lake in -30 F weather. That is gods country right there
Shane...no wonder you remember that..!!!...bet a nickel you likely had a fair wind with that 30 below

Coldest weather I've ever been in was up there Snowmow. it never got above -60 F for at least a week and one morning was -73 F with no wind.
The flight company is Alpine Aviation out of Whitehorse and the pilot that flew us in was Andrew whose parents own a remote lodge near Dease Lake and the pilot that flew us out in the yellow plane was the owner of the company whose name is Gerd who is as well an avid snowmobiler.
Gerd is second to none of modern day bush pilots and I put the same trust in any pilot he choses to hire , an awesome fella..!!

Sweet pics Doug..love driving thru that area...
Perhaps, but a Malibu 24MXZ, a Bennington pontoon (set up for fishing) and a pair of Sea Doos would nicely fit into those pictures!

No worries Snowmow it's all good. It gets real boring around here without
some pot stirring

What do you and magic mountain so for a living? Seems like you boys got it figured out! Living pretty plush! Hope I'm headed in that direction!

Did I hear something about pot?
sometimes its not what you do for a living but what you do without to live..!!!
less eating out , fix up the old iron instead of always having new, leaving fashion clothes to the runway models, less booze and try and quit smoking...
But other then that I do plumbing and heating...
Remember the simple things in life are plush..the wilderness is already there waiting....just be thankful you are not rich and have to work all your life 24/7 to maintain the rich lifestyle you aquire a taste for.
