Yesterday was another blue sky day in the Koots so we travelled up Highway 31 to explore some new areas. One place we discovered was the community of Howser that probably has the best campsite in B.C. in it - and its free! It is located on Duncan Lake and has lovely sites along the lakeshore and TWO sandy beaches. I've never liked Duncan Lake but did learn that it is partly au natural - the Duncan Dam made it grow by 40 km in length. Actually, the Duncan Dam didn't look all that bad either, for a dam!
We saw 13 bald eagles fishing along the Lardeau River and pictured here is the Gerrad Bridge as it crosses the Lardeau - B.C.'s remote Highway 31. Not visible in this picture, but about 50 m off the road, was a grizzly feeding on the carcass of an animal we couldn't identify. The ravens were in on it too.
