That looks pretty cool!

One day I will go back to Kamloops and have a better experience.

[Rhino]

come on down anytime .

[ltsowiak]

Rhino, please use some adjectives to describe life in Kamloops. I've passed through it a million times en route to Vancouver and find it quite interesting looking. I'm really interested in knowing how a homer would describe it.

[Rhino]

HOT . not much rain . Warmer winters , rare to go down to -10 .
Lots to do out doors , IE camping , boating , hiking , Fossil digging , concerts in Riverside park . Great hockey in winter , and thats not forget SUN PEAKS RESORT.
All in all I love living here , and would not want to go any where else. Most who come here feel the same . Its hard to leave.

IYO, is it better than the Okanagan? Would you rate it higher than eastern BC, like Invermere? Why or why not? I ask because I am contemplating a move there from overseas. It would be a completely new start for us. We're thinking Inveremere, Kamloops, Kelowna, maybe Calgary.

[Rhino]

It is warmer then all of thoses yes , ( Kamloops just won warmest city in Canada last year ) , the economy is very good. Yuo will not have the options you have in Calgary but it is on par with the Okanagan ( just with less trafric . ) Invermere ? thats a pretty small place to try and make a start with . The eastern B.C. area has coller springs, summers, falls, and winters then our part of the prov. Ether here or Kelowna you would do very well in both .

[ltsowiak]

Thanks for the information. A lot of rivalry between Kelowna and Kamloops I would imagine, eh?

[Rhino]

Kamloops , no offence to Kelowna as I do like it there , has city feel IE down town .
Kelowna feels like one big suburb that someone forgot to build a city in .

[Kev the burninator]

^^We're working on it... :sleepy: haha. But really, kelowna has many projects underway downtown and i think in about 7 years, it will have quite the happening downtown. Right now there's two huge cranes up and like 5 smaller ones but since there is a new 20 storey hotel going in as well next to prospera place, there will be another huge crane. Just wait, Kelowna is and will continue to build up for quite some time.... Until the building boom ends... OR WILL IT?!?!

[Rhino]

I hope it doesnt , and yes Kelowna has some biggies . Its to bad they werent in just ONE place though . They tend to be spread out all over the place .

[rider_of_rohan]

Looks like a great place, hope to get to BC someday. Thanks for the photos

[Trey]

I was in kelowna on tuesday with my buddy looking at vehicles with him because hes looking at buying a new one. Kelowna deffinatly has some big buildings going on, much bigger than what kamloops has. I do like the fact that we actually have a nice little core to our city but little is deffinatly the word for it.
It would be nice to see kamloops build up like the way kelowna does, but with the way things are looking for this year or the next 5 i doubt we'll have any new landmarks (except for that student residence) to show off.

[Rhino]

hard to say , I am always optamistic though .

[Rhino]

I was thinking that this is probably the best place for these , seeing as they are not projects at all .

Nice Pictures. It just reminds me how vast this Province is seeing as that the land is so much different than one of my favorite areas that I will showcase in Howe Sound and The Strait of Georgia.

[Rhino]

wow , those are great thank you for posting .

[Trey]

nice photos! its great to see this thread picking up. i was out at pinatan lake today to visit a friend and i planned on taking a whole bunch of pictures of the area. turns out i was nearly as cool as rhino and left my camera at home.
but i'll be up there on sunday again and this time i will not forget.

[Rhino]

turns out i was nearly as cool as rhino and left my camera at home.
HEY !!!!

[Rhino]

http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b126/GeoffWray9/WaterfrontParkfromAirLARGE.jpg I had to steal this from G-ROY because it is such a great shot.

[Trey]

isn't that a shot from what looks like the 21st floor of that discovery pointe resort hi-rise?

[ltsowiak]

Wow. This thread is like a well kept secret! Too bad a lot of the shots were unviewable though. Congrats to all of you posting those pics cuz, wow, I'm a little bit breathless at the moment. I wish there were better descriptions of what's what. Like, I went camping with family in Osoyoos several times as a kid; that campground site looked awfully familiar, but I don't know what it was called. Our site was always "The Oasis." Anyway, those are beautiful pictures; some even stunningly so. B.C. almost corners the market on Canadian landscape beauty (although the Alberta Rockies can hold their own).

[Rhino]

the camp ground is called cabana beach , at the end of the road on the East side of the lake.pics arent showing ? Ill check this out .

[Rhino]

those shots are Trevors , poor guy . I think he deletes images off his computer when they get old.

[G-roy]

isn't that a shot from what looks like the 21st floor of that discovery pointe resort hi-rise?
Nope, as you can see in the photo it was taken well before Discovery bay was built. You can see the 17 story Dolphins tower, and the land on the very bottom left, (theres a mound of dirt) is where the 21 story tower and the faulty discovery bay condos are now. SO this photo is somewhere around 3-4 years old.

and ps. I wish I could take credit for the photo but it isnt mine, I googled it awhile ago and give kudos to whoever did snap the pic.

[Trey]

well actually i deleted some pics because im new to photobucket and i thought it had a max limit of photos...guess not.
only deleted a few and wont be any more

[Rhino]

all right then , as long as we cleared that up .

[ergit222]

^^any photos of Kaslo, Nelson BC and Kootenay area?

[Franky]

Holy shit, British Columbians are so spoiled. The Kamloops/Logan Lake area and the Okanagan are my favourite places on Earth. However, each region in BC rivals the other one. West Vancouver Island, the Sunshine Coast, and the Kootenays are also quite spectacular areas.

small dam eh?

its been about 10 years since i was there last, they still haven't tapped into those two enclosed pipes yet.

[Rhino]

they will ( or that is what the tour guide { super hot red head ] told us in 2008-2010 ) . The dam can support enough power to run 1 million homes ! with the expantion , 1.25 million !

North hills , KAMLOOPS BC CANADA

[TRMD]

Are there ever any rally races in Kamloops? The "North Hills" looks very suitable for some great rally races.

[Rhino]

I think there should be , but no , I dont think so .

How far is Kamloops from Vancouver?

[zivan56]

355 km ~ 4-5 hours

[Rhino]

[*Jarrod]

well , Ive made the trip from the GRV to Kamloops in 3 hours, but thats at 120km hr.

Which is really easy on the Coquihalla.

When I've been through Kamloops it always looks smaller than it is. I've never really seen it except at the bus depot which really smells bad. My friend went to TRU and she thought Kamloops was nice.

I will be there sometime in January on the bus.

I love the interior

[Rhino]

smells bad ? Oh thats Trevor. lol , Kamloops is not THAT small . its a great size and growing every day ! We welcome you to our Great City when you get here.

P.S. { that shot above is of ONE subdivision [ NORTH SHORE ] not the whole City ) ;)

^ AWESOME....i've never seen this part of BC....thanks for the pics!

[Rhino]

hey , your welcome . Its nice to have this in your back yard.

[Booyashako]

I would really love to see some photos of palm trees in BC. Anyone got any?

[Rhino]

ha ha ha ha , MR X , and anyone from Vancouver if you would please show the man what he wants .

[Overground]

Oh oh...lol....I'll try to find some from that other thread....


Here we are. Windmill palms or Trachycarpus fortunei grow up to 35+ ft. So the ones you see below will eventually reach that. But a similar species is becoming ever so popular and in a few years will be quite common to plant instead of the fortunei. It's called Trachycarpus takil and has larger fronds, grows faster, hardier, and is taller. It's the closest Vancouver can get to the classic tall LA type palms called Washingtonia. I reckon you'll see these all over Van in 20 years. Here is a pic of one in Rome-
