tenquille....

I think it would be easier for them to make a list of what is NOT burning in that area. It must be shorter.

sad but true…..

the della trail may become a firebreak :(

The forest needs fires. Sucks when it affects towns and people but such is life.

Riding through old burns is pretty cool though.

Here are a few pictures before and after the weekend on the Tenquille trail exit at the end of Pemberton Meadows.

We managed to get back in this morning about an hour before it was closed except for emergencies.

Yeah, I figured that Guiness wouldn't be something he'd want to associate with for a while ;)

Agree with the forest needs fires, especially important for new growth- one tree species if I recall correctly needs fire for the seeds to germinate.

It's so strange to see a forest fire without huge flames, just smoke.
It's very unusual for me.
3 days ago we had a forest fire around my place (like 15kms ago), 180ha in 2.5 hours :(
It sucks..

Well MrsGurstin has been calling me it since that evening so I just assumed it was my new name

call it karma, but just a couple weeks after getting the word out on the interwebz about the della trail, a bulldozer was run down the trail to create a fire break… :(

i guess we're going to have to find that fountain ridge route then

true, Kelowna is a good example. When life puts you on the ropes, make lemonade, cuz thats the way the cookie crumbles

avoid cliches like the plague.
