Bear Eating With Youth
The young bear has huge bald patch on its rump. The bear (who has a sibling) was walking fine. I wonder if it was a birth defect or an injury. John Harvey Photo > Blogs for 2023 to 2005 > August 2019 > Bear Eating With Youth

Small Pieces Of Agate With Chisels
Agate is generally a hard rock, but it still cracks if it is struck directly or you pry on it too hard. I need to buy real chisels with hand guards. These little chisels are great for prying open small cracks, but you safely really bang on it them until they are firmly lodged. Tags: tool

Vein Of Agate
There is a small window of agate filling in the crack in this rock. The agate seems pretty plane - no bands or color gradients. A vein like this in the middle of a rock is probably more trouble than it is worth. John Harvey Photo > Blogs for 2023 to 2005 > August 2019 > Vein Of Agate

Zakwaski Mountain
This mountain sticks out more than most in the area. It's also the only named mountain I can find on local maps. John Harvey Photo > Blogs for 2023 to 2005 > August 2019 > Zakwaski Mountain

Fireweed
This plant is very common in BC. These ones didn't seem to be covered in road side dust. Species: Chamerion angustifolium (fireweed)

Crack Mined Out
This was a bit of tricky spot to get to - the footing was poor. I was looking for veins of agate when I probably should have been looking for agate in nodules. John Harvey Photo > Blogs for 2023 to 2005 > August 2019 > Crack Mined Out
