Chilliwack Vedder River High and Rising
« on: November 23, 2017, 04:36:24 AM »

Filmed this on The Chilliwack River as the river was on the rise, It has risen nearly 2 feet since I filmed this.

It's hard to imagine that if I was on the same sandbar now, that I was on in early Oct, the water would be well over my head! And I'm over 6' tall.

Exactly my thoughts.

Did the camp get cleaned and cleared at all this year ?

So true the Fraser Valley Regional District visited the site yesterday and they told him the CO service has ordered them to leave a few days ago. It is being worked on but it seems so slow. Also there is so much garbage around their tents I am told.

This camp was moved before as most of you know but they set up again. What needs to happen once they are removed and once again they set up they should be stopped before a single tents grows daily to many more.

Of course the break ins then start too.

I have found another camp's garbage this week. Check the Fraser Valley Illegal Dumping Alliance I put there if you wish to see them. I am one of the administrators there

Is that the camp just above the crossing you guys are talking about?
