  • Ruins of the ice cream shack, Butedale Creek, Princess Royal Island, British Columbia<br /> <br /> Looks like it must have been an inviting place to stop for ice cream in the past! The power plant and the ice plant were located upstream of this small shack, and the only local resident "Butedale Lou" keeps a turbine running on the stream to generate a small supply of electricity. See here for info on Butedale Lou and his cat: <a href="http://waggonerguide.com/content/profile-lou-simoneau">http://waggonerguide.com/content/profile-lou-simoneau</a>. His house can be seen here: <br /> <a href="http://goo.gl/71JcbA">http://goo.gl/71JcbA</a><br /> <br /> The site was abandoned when it became uneconomic to process fish there. Since the buildings are wood frame they gradually rot and return to nature, much as the aboriginal totem poles in the area were designed to do.<br /> <br /> Several more photos from Butedale can be seen here: <a href="http://goo.gl/iLN7oI">http://goo.gl/iLN7oI</a><br /> <br /> 29/10/13 <a href="http://www.allenfotowild.com">http://www.allenfotowild.com</a>
  • Sail boat passing Butedale falls, Princess Royal Island, mid-coast British Columbia (best large)<br /> <br /> Once summer comes, and the weather settles, the fjords and islands off the Inside Passage to Alaska are a popular boating destination for sailors from the lower Mainland of BC and the USA. Indeed, with the exception of two roads that reach the coast from the interior of BC at Bella Coola and Prince Rupert, most of the coast has no road access and the approximately 12000 square miles (32,000 square km) of this amazing wilderness can only be reached by boat.<br /> <br /> Other photos of this part of the Inside Passage, including another couple of big waterfalls, can be seen here: <a href="http://goo.gl/ZEHI4b">http://goo.gl/ZEHI4b</a><br /> <br /> 30/10/13 <a href="http://www.allenfotowild.com">http://www.allenfotowild.com</a>
