I very rarely touch the stuff any more ('bout once a year here):



But keeping with the theme of this Thread, this looks like a good spot:

The partial view from the Burrad Street Bridge, downtown Vancouver, BC.

haha, there's a lot of people around plus security cameras. But if you just HOLD IT like its a cigarette and act like your a tourist taking pics, then all is well.

Aerial view of Kootenay Lake looking from Creston's direction towards Kootenay Bay. That's Crawford Bay to the right, Kaslo up the lake and the West Arm to the left. Kokanee Glacier is to the left out of the picture. And the "world's longest free ferry" wanders back and forth between Kootenay Bay and Balfour (down the West Arm).

Ever stand on top of Kokanee Glacier? You can see forever in 360 degrees. You can see nothing but mountain tops all the way to the Coastal Rockies (at least that is what it looks like). It is worth the 3 1/2 hour hike up through the "Key Hole".

Some young friends and I were playing up there one hot August afternoon when I noticed that the sun was way below us. We were in T-shirts. Had to make a mad dash back to the parking lot because it gets really cold up there at night and we were not prepared.

Whoa! I should go searching the sub-forums more often, first time I found this topic.


Great places to smoke a doobie, eh? Anyplace, really. I find that the odd puff can turn the mundane into if not the sublime, at least something far more interesting, no?

The best places I have ever smoked up are the tops of mountains far removed from civilization and a long chopper ride from camp. Nothing has ever spiritually moved me so much as the vista laid out before me and the knowledge that I was the only human being for as far as the eye could see. Places like that, I think, are hard to get to because the journey there teaches you something.

I wish I had photos loaded on my computer of some of the mountains I visited while prospecting - will have to scan some in.

I do have this photo that I took from a friend's deck this fall, shortly after I had a couple of puffs.

Whyte Cliff Park in West Vancouver. Bowen island in the background.

Strong Christian beliefs and marijuana. Ever consider becoming a Rastafarian?

wiki
The Rastafari movement or Rasta is a monotheistic, new religious movement that arose in a Christian culture in Jamaica in the 1930s.[1][2] Its adherents worship Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia, former Emperor of Ethiopia (1930–1936 and 1941–1974), as God incarnate, the Second Advent, and are known as Rastafarians, or Rastas. The movement is sometimes referred to as "Rastafarianism", but this term is considered derogatory and offensive by some Rastas, who dislike being labelled as an "ism".[3]

The Rastafari movement encompasses themes such as the spiritual use of cannabis[4][5] and the rejection of western society, called Babylon (from the metaphorical Babylon of the Christian New Testament.) It proclaims Africa (also "Zion") as the original birthplace of mankind, and embraces various Afrocentric social and political aspirations[4][6], such as the sociopolitical views and teachings of Jamaican publicist, organizer, and black nationalist Marcus Garvey (also often regarded as a prophet).



Thunder Bay, Hillcrest Park at Sunrise (Wake and Bake). That's the Sleeping giant... I don't think you have to be buzzed to see him.

I did consider Rastafarian religion when I was younger, but it passed. I'm too fair skinned, and my hair doesn't "dreadlock" very well.

Thanks for posting your pic of your really cool spot to smoke pot and enjoy the view! Awesomeness!

There's this new spot I found on the Trans Canada Highway in West Vancouver. This is called "Eagle Bluffs" because they blasted this section of mountain to make way for the Olympic improvements to highway, to the demise of the bald eagle nests. (Bastards)

On one side you see the busy highway and the forested mountains, and behind you is the ocean and some residence of West Van. An awesome spot and I will return for sure. ;)
