Wanted: B.C. Interior outhouse outlaws who’ve burned down, shot at backcountry toilets
Over the last 12 years, the Hunters Range Snowmobile Association has fundraised for and built three wooden outhouses for backcountry users like themselves to use while out on the trails. All three burned down. Now, a fourth one appears to have been shot at.

A view from where my dad (nearly 80!) and I climbed to while backcountry skiing — nothing but snow all around and freezing cold, but a well-earned view after the long climb.

Sorry for not posting for a while. Getting everything done before my hike was a handful. Now I am about to hit the wild with my new pulka. Let us see how this goes. I have two weeks worth of food, but I might have to come back earlier if it looks like all the snow is going to melt away. It is quite warm for this time of year.

It's my position that no one should go into the #backcountry planning to spend the night out without carrying a #wildlife resistant canister.

I own a BearVault BV500. Yes, it's huge. Yes, it's expensive. Yes, it's heavy. And yes, it's not permitted in a few areas near me where bears have learned to open the BearVault, specifically.

A wildlife resistant canister protects more than just you and bears, it deters all wildlife from becoming habituated. #backpacking #camping #outdoors
