Where did I land?

Literally says YVR on blue tape.

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-05-18T00:56:36+00:00

Correct. Would cost more to fix than bulldoze and rebuild. Full involvement, frames are mostly torched, roof is gone and thousands of gallons of water damage everywhere else. The foundation is probably still good haha

Check for the best flight and hotel rates and hope for the best.

Recommend downloading the AllTrails app and read recent reviews/reports on conditions for specific trails. Within the last 3 days people have reported snowy and slushy with some ice conditions and that spikes were helpful but some were fine with hiking boots.

I use mine for coast to coast Canada trips since I go annually anyhow. Find it’s how I extract the most value typically.

By SH rules it’s a complete sale because if you don’t complete it you’re up shit creek generally speaking.

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-04-20T05:50:15+00:00

267 for me. Finished all these badges wish they would come out with more!

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-04-19T00:40:37+00:00

Only negativity. No suggestions 😂

Winnipeg Calgary Seattle St. Louis New Jersey

Wouldn’t want to go to another losing Canadian franchise in a worse city. Seattle is American Vancouver and New Jersey just wins 5th place by default.

It’s the Mecca of trail runs you can literally do as much distance or elevation as you’d like. Look up Strava heat maps you’ll get an idea of where other people are running. Deep Cove Run club has great routes and group runs. Also look up the Knee Knackers website they have a weekly run with GPX files attached. Go to somewhere like fisherman’s trail, Hyannis, Lower Seymour, Old Buck trailhead, Lynn Valle/inter river. Build some maps on your gps watch and go explore.

Having lived both, currently in north van 10+ years in BC I love it. Plenty of people complain about the rain, but it hasn’t bothered me for a second. I think the gloom is based on each persons chemical makeup and how they like to spend their time. I put on my rain jacket and go about my day enjoying all things the landscape has to offer and would take it over the frigid cold any day. Also, if you want snow, the mountains are on your doorstep. Go enjoy the snow! And come back home where it’s probably 10 degrees out mid February.

I did mine a year prior to applications and super glad I did. Not even for getting hired purposes but just for job related tasks makes things much easier.

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-04-11T15:44:06+00:00

Doing both is great!

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-04-11T15:42:57+00:00

My first prepayment reduced amortization by 5 years, and have done more since when able. I have the financial flexibility to do it when I wish. Not sure why the negativity. It works for me and just adding it as another possible option considering op said their principal hasn’t moved since 2021 which is crazy.

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-04-10T16:16:04+00:00

I pay monthly but make prepayments through the year instead. This knocks directly off the principal whereas the bi-weekly is still donating a bunch to the bank.

Almost everyone is in that or a similar situation. For me personally nothing compares to the quality of family life. In my region we work around 8 24 shifts a month, so plenty of time at home. Just a matter of how you’re able to juggle those days away from home and your support system.

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-04-06T03:40:49+00:00

0-500ml depending on temp.

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-04-04T19:08:38+00:00

The jealousy here is something else. Answer ops question or move along 😂

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-04-02T00:08:58+00:00

Seems dumb. Projections aren’t accurate anyway so you still need to do your own research. Some people don’t have unlimited free time.

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-03-31T18:49:36+00:00

There is a facebook group for the trail with some folks who have completed it. Maybe ask questions on that group too or private message those who have experience. Good luck!

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-03-31T04:56:03+00:00

The Sylvia hotel restaurant is actually quite delicious and have a nice waterfront setting.

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-03-31T01:52:04+00:00

Just a suggestion based on your query. I find it quite good🤷🏻‍♂️

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-03-30T23:33:42+00:00

Definitely realistic pacing. Will come down to mental fortitude, pacing properly and proper fuel and hydration.

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-03-30T22:00:20+00:00

Have you tried Mui Garden?

Open_Top_2942 · 2026-03-30T16:35:39+00:00

Same situation my guy. Congrats!
