    Hi Paul,

    I may be able to make it, just have to do an oil change and valve check first as that 2000 km trip last week put me well into the past due....

    We ended up with a pretty nice day, overcast but dry... We checked out a few side roads towards Port Alice and then decided to explore a bit around the MW mine...


    This tunnel is above water for a change..



    Some of the 4 open pits









    Carson on the tram





    Parked on the lake bottom



    Funny story about this lake is that after they built the dam and raised the water level it was decided that the trees should then be cut down... What a mess it made on the lake bottom not to mention the damage to a few props...
