Yikes! It looks like rain is thankfully on its way. The Chinooks in the Indian River should be ok – (I think they wait until Nov/Dec to come up the river, but I’m unsure..)

Hi All:

I was out kayaking today in Indian Arm. While it was a beautiful day to be on the water, something odd was clearly going on. Every part of Indian Arm is littered with dead salmon. According to a kayaker I talked to, someone who had been to the far end of Indian Arm said there were thousands of dead salmon up there.

When I got home, I poked around the internet and came up with this story in the Narwhal:

Restoring the flow: Tsleil-Waututh’s race to save salmon habitat in drought stricken southwest B.C.

Cheers

This Saturday we are going on a special mission and there are a few spots left for Fall Fling’s trip to Thwaytes Landing.

We will stop at the old power station building to find out if we can identify any paranormal activity…..

Not a joke!

I am not sure about doors slam but last year someone called my name (turned out to be a fellow kayakers needed a rescue) but who knows?!

Here is the article from last October : https://vancouversun.com/news/local-news/b-c-hydro-makes-eerie-claims-about-three-of-its-metro-vancouver-sights

Hi Limor,

I might join you for lunch at Maple Beach if the group logistics accommodates this. I will be on the water well before 9.00, so may paddle beyond the point and meet up with you in the channel. Which shore will you paddle along, and will you have you radio on? What channel?
I will confirm on Saturday evening if I plan to join you. Email me privately if you prefer.

If anyone is interested in joining me from Strathcona, please check with Limor if she can accommodate us, then email me, and we might join up for a fun morning paddle.
