OO,
Lol, yes did look up. Quite a few slides in this area a couple weeks ago when the weather was up around 50 and raining for a few days. It's back to frozen up hard now. The groomer cat had pushed the ones on the main trail off to the side when the snow was soft. This was a side trail about 3 miles up to the hot springs we were shooting for. These were froze up ice and I couldn't really blade them. Crawled over the first couple but got iffy after that so we headed over to the other spot about 4 miles away. Didn't need to risk slipping into the creek when we're 9 miles in by ourselves. Yes lots of hot springs in our neck of the woods.
There are a lot of great places in the world, but we do feel pretty lucky to be here.
Cave hot springs sounds really cool.
PJL,
That antenna is left over from BC Tel. I put a cb in it as we use it between jeeps and cats. Have thought about going to vhf (ham) but other people also tend to have cb in their rigs so makes that handier. Thoughts, suggestions?
