My Wife asked me if I knew what her favorite flower was?
Apparently "Robin Hood All Purpose" was the wrong answer!

It is and just outside of Grand Forks proper, as you come down the main hill.

Can't figure out why I lost my mojo in this thread, cuz it's a great one, but glad it's revived.
As WW3 develops, no one is going to be dissing the "preppers." What have you done?

That's Mount Waddington, the tallest peak in the Coast Range. Where were you living at the time... somwhere in the West Chilcotin along the Homathko river or something?

In the interest of keeping this game going (and because I know I correctly identified Glacier's submission) here's another picture. Name the town.

You are correct about the mountain. I was closer than the Homathko. No idea where you picture is. MacKenzie?

No, that is not the one in the picture.

The picture is of Ozeroff Village.

You're right. It is a former Doukhobor communal village. Now it is in private ownership. At one time it was supposed to become a hippy-type commune but that didn't fly.

Lets jump start this thread, I've a given correct answer to Liquidnails shortly after this was posted. In case that was forgotten here it is again Kimberley BC.

Once Liquidnails gets back that is correct I will post a picture.

Well, I waited a few days for Liquidnails to get back.

So here is my picture for those to guess:

Looking for the name of this River, as a bonus name the location where the picture was taking.

Looks like the Granby River north of Grand Forks.
