I head into the Brisco Range of the Canadian Rockies for an adventure towards Mt. Crook... then across to the Purcells to visit a fire lookout.

The vertical layers of rock on the unnamed peak is simply breathtaking. Very hard to fathom how tectonic activity can turn gigantic chunks of rock up on its sides like that. Also that shot of Rocko eating the kibble is cute. I'm a sucker of videos of animals being fed when they were resting. Like "sleep mode" → "nom" → "back to sleep".

@canadaauroraborealis3958
@canadaauroraborealis3958 2 года назад
Trouble is, Foresty is a Canadian, and Nixon was never OUR President, so I think his comment was out of line. No American would ever imagine naming a mountain in the USA after a Canadian Prime Minister, even in jest, such as Mount Justin Trudeau, to go along with 2 other peaks nearby already named Communist and Muslim. And for all the non-Canadians out there, Trudeau gets elected with about 40% of the popular vote of those people that DO vote, which is about 60% of the electorate. So there are lots of people who do not like him, especially in the Western Provinces, which outside of Vancouver, Edmonton and Winnipeg almost totally votes moderate conservative.

Foresty, I have adopted a pair of Malinois pups, I got some what they call 'Potty Bells'. Its a nylon strap with jungle bells you hang over the door handle. Every time you put Rocko out put her on the lower step and jungle the bells. My Malinois picked up on it in a few days. Pay no attention to the Haters! Haters gonna hate. They pick someone, unload giving themselves a feeling of superiority (they cant get that feeling through their own talents} and move on. Keep up the good work!

Looks like Rocko is enjoying life with you.

Fire lookouts in BC are not public domain like an old emergency shelter or whatever is. They are owned by and are supposed to be maintained by the local forestry district. Many of them are no longer used but kept as standby inventory for possible use. Others are still used officially in the summer time. I visited one near Merritt, BC that actually had full on power and an electric stove. That was pretty awesome.

The GIANT mine at the foot of Jubilee is also a good visit. Going to visit the Bugaboos? probably too much snow still. the deserted mine you showed is a good horizontal hike in, (good headlamp required) with a few pipes going up. was abandoned in the 80's. well done with Rocco!
