A great day along lower Kanaka as we took part
in this huge world wide celebration of our rivers and streams. Thanks to our
volunteers, and once again to Panago!
District of Maple Ridge staff
and their families gather in preparation to remove invasive periwinkle.
After a walk down the dike...
The project got underway.
Lots of high winds on this
day, at one point tearing the top of the tent.
Canoe trip getting underway.
Hanging by the booth.
The girls made sure the
aforementioned booth didn't blow away.
Looking downstream, towards
the Fraser confluence.
Braving 60km/h winds along the
Fraser.
The Salmon are Sacred people
paddled down from Mission to meet us.
Another canoe departs...
..into this.
A fair amount of hot chocolate
was consumed later.
