All posts by wilderness dweller

I have lived for more than 30 years as a Wilderness Dweller. Most of that time was in cabins I built myself far from the nearest road, high in the mountains of British Columbia, Canada. My "retirement" home is accessible by a bush road but still far from neighbours. I live off the grid, and operate this blog by solar-powered satellite internet.

Bus tour at Nuk Tessli

No, the bus cannot drive to Nuk Tessli.  Instead, participants are flown in by a fleet of float planes.  (Nice handbag, Ian.)

plane at my dockThe party is divided into three groups.  Each group visits for between two and three hours.  The rest of their day is taken up with a flight-seeing tour over the glaciers and a hike to Hunlen Falls.  This part of the tour is orchestrated by Tweedsmuir Air.  Most of the bus tours that come to me are run by Wells Gray Tours.
