Hey Jeff nice bird but my question is regarding that mountain in the background.It sure looks alot like one they call the Chief in Squamish B.C. My brother lives in Squamish and used to live at the foot of it in a sub division called Valley cliff.We used to look out his window at people spending the night hanging in little hamocks half way up,you could see there lanterns lit up.My brother now lives in Brackendale,just up the highway about 10 miles and every winter the river has one of the largest populations of Bald Eagles in North America.

So its probaly not the same mountain but hey now you know a bit about Squamish.
Regards....ice

Not bad, Jeff. Can you use old shots? I am so tired of waiting for birds to fly.

I am going to be mumbling that, in every thread I respond to.

ginger (and I know my sensor is dirty...........I took it to the beach, too!)

Nice shot, though, nice mountain! Do you have mtns?

i really do not think so Harry i think will start the thread on the 20th but he has not said anything about the dates

and G birds never fly if you are ready --never Jeff L ,Ben myself and many others all know this

if you wait 2 hrs they wait 2hrs and 1 min even knowing this i bet Harry will want new pictures :cry

iceman17 · October 20, 2005

Any time from Dec to Jan

,Id say bring Harry along to but you know him and Eagles,they'd all be in front of his lens

..Im gonna try and make it out there this xmas.There is a spot not far from were I thought you took this pic called Shannon falls,it,s breath taking to say the least.....ice

Sorry Jeff I was wrong about the Squamish Bald Eagles being one of the largest populations in North America,fact is it,s the largest in the world.This is a quote from the town website.

Eagle Viewing

The Squamish area has the greatest concentration of wintering bald eagles in the world. Between November and March, literally thousands of eagles call the Brackendale area of Squamish home. Local companies offer walking and rafting tours along any of our many rivers from November through March to view these magnificent creatures.

My mistake.also the Chief is the second largest ,well here it is
Rock climbing

Squamish boasts some of the best rock climbing in North America. The granite cliffs surrounding Squamish (which includes the colossal Stawamus Chief,the world's second largest granite monolith) draw climbers from around the world. The Little Smoke Bluffs, Murrin Provincial Park, Comic Rocks and Cheakamus Canyon offer a multitude of one and two pitch climbs of all difficulties. Peak climbing months are between April and October but climbers can be seen year round whenever the weather permits.
This is the site,it would be fantastic to have a gettogether there,heck lodging would be free.

Take care....ice
