Heading there for a few days later this month. (25-27th)

Located just north of Harrison Lake, north of Vancouver.

It is a great place/destination to simulate a bugout situation. Plus there's hot springs:)

If there's anyone who wants to have a very casual meet and greet, I'll be there. Bushcraft and other activities planned.

pm for details on how to figure out which vehicle is mine, and if you need directions. Or download the Maps.me app, and the BC map (Free software!) Works without cell service, and the springs are marked on the map.

Missed a good time! I had two new shooters try the sport, and the springs were almost empty.

Next time I will give more notice. Everyone welcome.

(Before anyone gets on me about gripping the magwell, there's nowhere else to grip. Yet:) Free float forend on order. Holosun red dot, TNW ASR, Magpul MBUS, takes glock mags. Non-Restricted!

Ok....

More notice officially given!

Anyone want to do a West Coast prepper meet and greet late April 2018?

Well, April gives everyone plenty of notice!

I’m bringing kids and a dog. The campground is pretty relaxed for dogs, as long as they behave and don’t actually go the 1/4 mile downhill to the springs themselves.

Well, it does get cold there at night in the spring, so since the S hasn’t HTF, we have to abide by the burning ban once it’s in place. I’m thinking early May? Does anyone have a preference of weekend versus weekday?

Ok , apologies in advance.....

If anyone happens to be free this weekend, heading up for a no-notice, last minute run to Sloquet this weekend. Actually heading up tomorrow, leaving Sunday. If anyone happens to be by, I’m in a silver Tacoma with canopy. Pop by and say hi if you can!

Once again heading up. Aug 26-29. Of you happen to be there, say hi. Teaching some kids some bushcraft, basic skills, etc. propane fire out to combat the ban! First bevy on me.... pm if you need directions.

Or download the maps.me offline gps app. It’s marked in there. You won’t get there via Harrison hot springs. Bridge is out. You have to come via whistler/Pemberton.

Awesome. I am in currently in Mexico, coming back to Canuckistan last week in May. I have a few events planned along the way home ... OVERLAND WEST EXPO in Flagstaff, Az, Astro/Safari BURNING VAN in Eastern Wa. If schedule works out, I would love to attend your " prepper hot pool party".

I usually spend my Summers on Vancouver Island, but get over the the mainland fairly often. I have the BC OVERLAND EXPO on the mainland, on my calendar for June.
Hope to see you

I have a scheduling conflict for that time I will be in Washington for an AWD ASTRO/SAFARI event, scheduled for May 24 - 27. I might get away early, but any chance you or your event crowd could hang around for Monday?
Thanks
