OOhhh, yes!

I see the old station.

And Liquidnails, serious question, as Mr. QK and I have our eyes set on exactly that area this year, did you have to hike in or is that from your car. Wonderful pic, I can hardly wait to get up there! Thanks for that.

It's a nice hike on a well worn trail quite close to Kamloops. Detailed directions here: http://www.kamloopstrails.net/file.php/ ... _Trail.pdf

Since I just had a turn, and it's been almost 24 hrs since the last guess... I'll drop a hint.

Whatever mountain you are thinking of, think of a different one farther west.

Those are definitely Coast Mountains or Vancouver Island Mountains, but I haven't a clue which part. I'm going to throw out a wild guess and say Campbell River.
