Sorry, JLM, off topic!

Sorry about what, Spade, when I started the thread, I didn't set any hard and fast rules. Hey, enjoy whichever way suits you. This sort of thing exercises the brain more than bad mouthing Obama, or Stephen Harper.

Irreguardless, *the sound of my teeth scraping across a chalkboard - or is it 'chaulkboard'?* I'm just happy to/too/two talk with people who write/right/wright with care.

Bonne nuit! (My grade 8 French sucks.)

I live south of you in Eagle Creek beside Canim Lake. :lol:

I worked there too, Mowich, about 1968, did a road survey from Forest Grove up to Eagle Creek for improvements to that road. It carried pretty heavy traffic in those days due to the Molybdimum mine at Hendrix Mountain.

Hey Mowich & JLM;

Small world, I worked on a fire in that area about 6 years ago (Spanish Mountain area, just west of the lava beds) and witnessed three friends and the pilot crash an A-Star helicopter on top of the mountain. The bestest thing (English lesson please) was, everyone walked away.

I got to thinking back, I said Hendrix Mtn. maybe it was Boss Mtn. - near Hendrix Lake.

So even you know that your logic refutes itself! tsk, tsk, tsk, very foolish...
You are the silly one. If the truth is relative to the beholder, which it is, then it is truth, except to people like you who don't believe it is and vise versa. You know that what you believe is true and I know what I know is true. That is what relative is about. There really is no competion when both parties are right. I can live with you not believing in what I do but you seem to think that if I don't believe as you do, them one of us is wrong. I think that is just childish. You think that that is the way things are because you believe in absolutes. I don't. So what?

It is a small world for sure. I know both areas well. It is the Boss Mtn. Mine, JLM, and it is just above the old townsite of Hendrix Lake. My ex and I prospected that area for years. He still has claims that surround the old mine property.

I also know the Spanish Mtn. area well and have hiked that area extensively. Glad to hear that all were well after the crash, LikelyGuy. :smile:

Hi Mowich, just curious about your moniker- "mowitch" is the term for deer in some Native Indian tongues and I thought at first that's what your moniker meant until I noticed the difference in spelling.........any connection?

When I lived up in Cottonwood House (on the Barkerville highway) I fought fire and tree planted up in the Likely and Horsefly areas. I've been to Quesnel Forks and Hydraulic. A bunch of us bush hippies seriously thought of moving into Quesnel Forks as in the seventies many of the houses were still livable.
