Wild Earth Adventures

Summer Field Office & Fishing

blue — Sat, 05 May 2012 17:54:24 +0000

We have just set up our field office in the Bella Coola Valley after a great winter at our home base in the Kootenay Rockies. We are so happy to be by the Bella Coola River again with our high speed connection and phone line, it’s the perfect place to mix work and play. A gentle 10 minute stroll through the forest and there are a series of great fishing pools. I took a walk last evening and found a great spot to cast a line or two. A few bites before I finally caught a nice big rainbow trout for dinner. In every direction the sky was dominated by impressive granite peaks shrouded in snow. The moon rose slowly over Snootli Peak as I became captivated by the imposing mass of Mount Nusatsum shown in the photograph above. It reminded me how special this valley is. So wild and remote yet only an hour flight from Vancouver (or a 12 hour road trip for the adventurous traveller). So many incredible spots and so few tourists! It makes it a real trip of a lifetime for our guests who get to see this hidden gem tucked deep in the Pacific Coast Mountains North of Vancouver in Beautiful British Columbia.
