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.

Thunder and rain

A week of thunder and rain, often very heavy.  The creek where we built the bridge is very full.

At last we are able to see green everywhere.

McLinchy river in semi-floodI am not sure what this will be as the river bed was changed so drastically in last fall’s major floods.
