    Cell phone coverage in Quatsino Sound?

    That's about right, we find that to get cell service moving into the sound is best, even inside around Kains is generally good, I would not plan on cell coverage seaward from the lighthouse cell strength weakens dramatically.

    Island Fires

    I have been advocating for the past several years that a fleet of 40 or so Canadair 215/515 is what is required. the Mars bombers were good in their day but the canadair aircraft are reasonably quick and nimble.Using helicopters with buckets once a fire gets going is like urinating on a...

    Winter Harbour - Where to launch?

    The road to Port Alice is paved, few good hills and does twist and turn so you are not going to be fast, but I figure the time to get to Port Alice vs driving to Coal Harbour about the same. At least In Port Alice you can launch tie the boat up and park the boat by yourself if necessary,Coal...

    Winter Harbour - Where to launch?

    Coyote Spooner, with a 30 foot boat you would be wiser to use Port Alice, Coal Harbour does not let you easily launch and tie up, also the ramp was designed for amphibious aircraft so it has a very shallow slope. I have a 25 foot boat , it is really a 2 man launching and retrieval operation.
