Last week, two of our board members Jasmin Raymond and Jeff Witter trekked to Meager Creek Hot Springs. The area served as the first geothermal exploration project in Canada several decades ago and hot water still flows at the surface. Says Jasmin of the trip:
“We had to hike 30 km to get there in and out in a day. It was exhausting, but amazing to see this beautiful site with the hot water coming out of the ground. We also had a chance to see the massive landslide deposits at Capricorn Creek. ”
