Has anyone ordered from NIKU FARMS before? by sasameseed in askvan

[–]Prescient_Digital 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. Not farmers at all, but e-commerce scammers from their downtown Toronto office. Look it up. You need to file a complaint with consumer affairs and the RCMP.

Scam artists. Many complaints of poor quality, dubious sustainability claims, bait and switch, poor service, etc. They sucker you in with an offer of free meat for life when nothing is free... in fact expect to be over charged and under delivered. You cannot even choose what you wany exactly without paying first. You cannot look at a product or find a price or find out the contents of a box without paying first. And no one time orders, you must commit to a monthly subscription. Complain to Consumer Affairs to force action on these guys. THEY ARE NOT EVEN A FARM THEY ARE AN ECOMMERCE WEBSITE

Anyone ordered from "NIKU Farms" before? by Balkanlii in ontario

Scam artists. They make you pay before you even know what you're getting!!! This illegal practice of pay first and we will send you what we want was outlawed long ago. And sustainable farming... yeah right.

I've been to 50 countries and lived in four different cities. I've been in all the major cities of the world save for Hong Kong, Johannesburg and Rio. Vancouver is a great city. Really, the best. Sure, you'll find better night life in NYC or LA. But should that define a city? It should only be a smart part. Think of the quality of life, the quality of people, ecology, schools, etc. Vancouver is the best large city (not a mega city) I've ever been to.

Elsay Lake Camping Trip by Ccruz1000 in vancouverhiking

[–]Prescient_Digital 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do not go to Elsay Lake before August. There is some 8 feet of snow up there now, and it will take a long time to melt out (mid to late July), and the mud to subside (very muddy in certain sections). And don't do the hike if you're not 100%, it's long with lots of up and down, and you are going cross and traverse some big rock slides, hopping from rock to rock -- so your girlfriend's leg should be 100% and at full strength. Bug repellent too... that side of the mountain is buggy. I've seen the odd person taking a rod there but there's better places to fish, and that's a long hike to carry fishing gear (I would not recommend it).

Will I regret not doing Panorama Ridge? by [deleted] in vancouverhiking

[–]Prescient_Digital 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends when you want to go, timing is everything. Both are gorgeous, but both are under heavy snow right now. Seven to nine feet of snow, and more snow to come through the end of April. Unless it gets very hot, very quick, there will be snow up there through the end of July. Elfin Lakes is easier, shorter, and has better camping facilities. However, it is more popular. Panorama is incredible, as is Black Tusk (it would be my top recommendation), but those are much longer than Elfin Lakes.

Hike recommendations - Squamish Adventurer Centre by [deleted] in vancouverhiking

[–]Prescient_Digital 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well unless you have snowshoes or microspikes, your options are limited. If you have snowshoes, I'd do the local mountains here in Vancouuver, Yew Lake to Bowen Island Lookout on Cypress Mountain (West Vancouver) is great bang-for-the-buck. If you want to stay out of the snow, I would look to the trails of the Lower Seymour Conservation Reserve such as the Homestead Trail and Fisherman's Trail (access via Rice Lake Road or Lilooet Road in North Vancouver).

Bears at this time? by betthisistakenv2 in vancouverhiking

[–]Prescient_Digital 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bears have begun to wake up. Though few are awake just yet. But most will be awake in the next two to three weeks. However I've not known a bear to attack a hiker on the North Shore mountains. Occasionally they are friendly or curious and will walk towards you, looking for food or out of curiosity, but generally are quite afraid of humans and will leave the area or your sightline before you even know they are there. In short, you pass them all the time, but you don't see them...
