Omineca Wilderness Lodge BC Canada: Lake is Summer Getaway for Many Species

http://omineca.blogspot.com/2010/07/lake-is-summer-getaway-for-many-species.html

Omineca Wilderness Lodge BC Canada. Thursday, July 29, 2010. Lake is Summer Getaway for Many Species. Howdy y'all. The dry heat of the last few weeks broke today. And we had a really good rain. Here's a photo Doc Ken took of a cow moose and calf during the heat wave. Cooling off in the lake are Mrs. Moose and her calf of the spring. The little gaffer would be about two and a half months old. By the fall the calf will lose the reddish coat it sports here and gain a brown/grey colour like Ma.

Omineca Wilderness Lodge BC Canada. Monday, August 9, 2010. BC Day Party 2. Yes, it was heck of a party. Some of the group activities undertaken were swimming, fishing, dog training, target shooting and some dedicated loafing. It was the first time that I received a dozen roses for my birthday and it's something I could get used to. It made me feel very special. I think I'll take this opportunity to hand-out a few awards:. Most Gear for Two People: Marian and John. Mermaid Award: Bailey, Kallie and Teneal.

Omineca Wilderness Lodge BC Canada: August 2009

http://omineca.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html

Omineca Wilderness Lodge BC Canada. Friday, August 14, 2009. Smoked Wild Rainbow Trout. Yes, most of the fish we catch are released. But we have to keep a few for the smoker. Or the frying pan or the campfire. We use a 50/50 mix of salt and brown sugar for the brine and dried Sitka Alder (Alnus crispa) chips for the smoke. Wild smoked Rainbow Trout: the perfect beer snack. And don’t get me started on still-warm smoked trout with thinly sliced onions and crushed black pepper on toast. Epilobium angustifol...

Omineca Wilderness Lodge BC Canada: July 2010

http://omineca.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html

Omineca Wilderness Lodge BC Canada. Thursday, July 29, 2010. Oh, Two Fish Lake, Gem of Omineca. Some places are extra special and this lake is one those special places. The water is clear, the view is idylic and the lake is full of trout. It's a place that whispers "come back" every time you leave. Jeff (left), Stan and Tom (seated) brought Doc Ken (center) along for the July Trip this season. And as usual, we had a whale of a time. Let's keep the tradition alive. Lake is Summer Getaway for Many Species.

Omineca Wilderness Lodge BC Canada. Friday, July 31, 2009. We've just had a slight break in the heatwave. That's taken up residence over BC for about 2 weeks.

The photo right is by Jill of Lou and me fishing from our new Blue Boat. Well let me tell ya. Thursday, July 23, 2009. Fish, moose and hatches. Sunday, July 19, 2009.
