Dave's TO DO LIST

I was chatting with BWD up at Nat Lake on Sunday morn, and I asked him if a lot of time is involved in maintaining the site and all of its "appendages". My impression is that its been a work in progress that has kept him pretty interested, but that it has evolved some routine chores that i...

Did anyone hear about the decision on a yearly camp pass?

Will a yearly camping pass be available at Nitinat this year? Sure would help to work out a budget... :shock:

Network Guy

I have a friend in Nanaimo who is a computer/network geek. He may be able to help. Is there a contact telephone number he can call to talk about what is needed at Nitinat?

Good Plan

So will the second cam be going up at gordo's when it returns, or not till next spring? Dave, my sister has a new cam i got for her on ebay a couple years back, for her to watch her pregnant mare. She hasn't used it since, but I'm not sure if it would be good enough for any bwd use. She paid only a ...

I was suggesting to BWD that he use a paypal donation button on the web site, for lazy ass couch surfers like myself, who can't mail a cheque unless the collectors are bangin on the door.
