Off the Grid



Packing up both of our VW's and hitting the road… destination… Carpenter Creek… that's where we have 16 acres of raw land.

This adventure will be new for us… haven't really explored our property as we just acquired the land late last fall and our normal holidays include road trips… travelling place to place… this time we will be camping out at our property for three weeks. We've got a couple of projects planned… build an outhouse, solar shower stall and foot bridge over the creek.

The Slocan Valley offers tons of adventures from hiking and biking to finding farmers markets to exploring undeveloped and commercial hot springs (I believe that there are 5 hot springs in the valley to find)… oh and Pika and Maya will have tons of opportunities for swimming as the Slocan and Kootenay Lakes are close by too… let the adventure begin…

It will be hit or miss for cell phone service but will try to update along the way…
