Sounded good in the beginning...tough critters, less water use, packs more than a mule. They didn't realize that their feet are built for sand not rough, rocky terrain, they smell terrible, are quite aggresive, and basically offend man and beast alike with their nature. It was the end of the camel pack train after a gent threatened to shoot one of them for scaring his horses and causing far more than their fair share of trouble on the Cariboo Trail. https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443331 45443331 I'm not positive but I think this is one of the first versions of what we now call the Heffley Creek Store https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443317 45443317 Anyone know where this building was? Mavis Kupchuk helped out with this one as she looks at the side of the old Creamery every time she looks out into her back yard. She recognized it right away. It looks very different now, but at the same time you can still easily tell it's the same building. https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443323 45443323 Cirlce Bar Ranch was owned by John Thomas Edwards. He purchased the property from Adam Heffley in 1872. https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443320 45443320 https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443319 45443319 https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443321 45443321 https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443322 45443322 https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443324 45443324 This appears to be the view towards Sun Peaks from the field on the West side of the highway, at the merging lane. https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443330 45443330 https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443332 45443332 https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443334 45443334 https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443336 45443336 https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443325 45443325 https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443333 45443333 I believe my house is right down there now... https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443337 45443337 Still looks the fairly similar https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443335 45443335 https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443326 45443326 https://heffleycreekhall.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=45443329 45443329
