Thats 95 feet or 28.95 meters! https://komonews.com/weather/scotts-weather-blog/the-story-of-how-mt-bakers-world-record-snowfall-22-years-ago-was-verified So that would have been enough to build a snowman? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post wiiawiwb Posted June 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 13, 2021 Went out yesterday in one of my areas of interest. It has rained a fair amount lately including early yesterday morning when I entered the woods. The mosquitoes were swarming and nearly impossible not to be ravaged by them. The rain caused creeks and bogs to expand providing a good opportunity to look for prints. No luck but tomorrow is another day. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackRockBigfoot Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 We went out to check out some recent Sasquatch sightings in an area about 3 hours away from us. Planned on at least spending one night on location. Pretty secluded area with a real weird and dark history. Spent less than 2 hours there before we got the heck out and just drove home. I am going to have to figure out how we are going to properly approach this area in a safe manner. My initial worry is the people who seem to be attracted to this area because of the history as opposed to anything Sasquatch related. Finding the remnants of a fire with pet carriers filled with excrement next to it in the middle of nowhere is always a good sign. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiiawiwb Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Always trust your instincts. Can you imagine backpacking in and getting those feelings in the middle of the night? That's a shame you had to drive all the way there. Can you reach out to any of those who had a recent sighting in that area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post langfordbc Posted June 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2021 Most of my field trips tend to be work related, but at least it takes me to some pretty cool and occasionally remote locations in northern BC. This is between Bob Quinn and Bell 2, BC, roughly 100 miles due east of Wrangell, AK. So many bears here, typically seeing 7-10 black bears a day and a handful of grizzlies over the shift. Closest reported sighting to here is this - from 2 years ago and about 100 miles south: https://www.bfro.net/GDB/show_report.asp?id=65630 Very few people in this country and most places on the map aren't even towns, just gas stations/camps or lodges. 3 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC witness Posted June 16, 2021 Author Share Posted June 16, 2021 (edited) Great photos, langfordbc, thanks for posting them. Your job reminds me of a well known Glen Campbell song, and I bet you've heard that comparison a thousand times! I've spent some time in NE BC, but not in the NW where you took these. Anywhere north of Prince George gets wild and lonely in a hurry, and goes on forever. I've followed sections of the cut line for the old 1880s telegraph line that was supposed to eventually reach Russia.

The linemen on the telegraph line (which ran right through this area) were pretty rugged dudes. If I recall correctly from the book I read, they signed up for two year "shifts" and had roughly 20 miles of line to maintain each. Every day they would use their key to contact the adjacent linemen and if no contact was made, they would head in that direction to repair the break, or sometimes, find their colleague hurt or dead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustCurious Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 I have a healthy respect for the work you do langfordbc. I was out riding my tricycle one day when off in the distance I saw this man hanging from a pole jerk around and then was just hanging there swinging in the breeze. I went in to get my mom to see this sight. She quickly covered my eyes for some reason and ushered me into the house post haste. I didn't realize until years later what I had seen, but it left an impression on me that has lasted a lifetime. That said, I envy the views you get doing your work!
