In the mid 60's, the Teepee trailer was located
at the bottom the radio site road,
next to a creek, for water access.
Next to the trailer was a BC Tel yellow garage
in which we kept the snow machine, for winter
access
to the top of the mountain.
Today this narrow gravel road is a paved highway.
Only the creek and road access are left.
Also visible in the picture on the right,
is one of the old Chev Panel trucks,
that we used for many years,
running up and down the Nass Road.
Those days the road was not connected to Kitwanga.
The Cranberry connection wasn't built for many
years.
All of our trucks were 4x4's and we needed
6x6's some days!
The color picture above, was taken when the
creek
flooded in 1972.
Notice now the Teepee trailer is gone,
moved up to the radio site.
Having the living quarters up by the radio
site,
made life a lot easier, even though we did
have
to carry water with us.
