Great video Luke! It's amazing how fast nature will reclaim its spots after a fire. I like the attitude regarding the summit. It's not all that great up there, but you did it😁

@scottculver 8 месяцев назад

Thank you Luke. Hard to believe 20 years have gone by since that fire!

@lifeofluke 8 месяцев назад

Yep, time flies as they say!

Interesting....so many little plane crashes around BC. I guess our mountains can be a navigational challenge at times. I love the way Nina looks at the camera. She knows the drill 😂

@lifeofluke 8 месяцев назад

Yep, coupled with often severe weather and low visibility, this is one of the most common threads in all the plane crashes I read about

It sure looked different, prior to the fire in 2003. I can remember picking the wild blueberries on the way to Baker Lake, then swimming in Divide. No bugs to speak of though. Beautiful time of year now. Thanks for sharing your adventures. 🌲🤙

Holy crap lol I actually see my name there @7:26 “Reece Martens /03” on the top/left of the bottom centre hole there lol. I always heard the cockpit was intact but a km away somewhere. I never found it.

Are you going try and make the trek to the B-36 crash site on Mt Kologet one day?

@lifeofluke 7 месяцев назад

Yeah that fascinating story has crossed my radar before, I would love to one day... It looks like an extremely difficult trip though

I talked with some old timers in town and they told me much of the fuselage was salvaged after the crash. This could be OK lore but some claim to have found the tail section another bushwhack from the crash site. I couldn’t find it on a couple attempts. 20 years of regrowth maybe hiding, it if it exists at all.

@lifeofluke 8 месяцев назад

That makes sense from what I saw there, the fuselage must have been salvaged, and yeah, the tail section missing is curious, maybe that was removed too
