Like title says,looking for pics of area,or an idea of terrain to be travelled while hunting.

What terrain compares here in the Lower Rainland-Okanagan areas if any ???

We are booked with RJAdventures @ the end of aug for moose and elk and would like to do some cardio(loose the Christmas baggage,and lots of it :oops:)

Getting stoked for this hunt,this will be a 1st in the area for my dad and myself.....

Those are some pretty amazing videos,looks like you and the family had-have a blast in there.

Looked @ a couple others also,and am amazed with this little part of the world we have.

Wish i had the nards to live up in that area(or my wife did :eek:,like most women she hates the cold)

Anyone answer why the Muskwa looks,or is so muddy in some of the you tube vids ???

muskwa is glacier fed and doesn't clear up until later in the fall

The dark color of the Muskwa is mainly from the leached tannins from the boggy low country.

Rock Doctor

LOL:tongue:
The "Lower" Muskwa NEVER clears up, the banks are mostly mud/silt untill you get way up, well past the mouth of the Tuchodi, or Gatho.
Once you go far enough, the water will change to that "pale green" glacier fed color:wink:.
