Skookumchuck


Which is also known as St. Agnes Well Hot Springs is closed to the flying public.

Here is the quote from Stephen Jimmie, IDC Economic Development Officer In-SHUCK-ch Nation: "The airstrip is closed for liability reasons. You will need to drive into the site to visit the hot spring. Thanks"

Sad but true, the end of a beautiful era in the history of King George. If anyone knows the In-SHUCK-ch Nation all you have to do is invite them for a fam flight and see if at least one of them would like to take flying lessons...

The strip was a bit sad looking last summer when Jock and I flew over. Looked like it was being used as a road.
