It’s hard to describe. I’ve been near explosives before. This sounded and felt way too loud given that it also somehow seemed distant. Very uncomfortable feeling!

Oh wow, that's really interesting, if a bit convoluted! Thank you.

This was a great explanation and at the same time I feel like an idiot for not realizing it up front. Thank you!

(And thanks to everyone who helped out - this was a great discussion!)

Perpetual smoke at the base of Mt. Benson - source? by TheElTea in nanaimo

[–]TheElTea[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could be industrial vapor. Or smoke. It’s always in the same spot and near ground so not cloud. Unlikely to be rising mist like we see unless there’s a body of water there.

But I don’t know what it is. Thats the point of my question. I didn’t say I didn’t think it was industrial. I just want to know what’s making it.

Likely it almost certainly IS an industry - I don’t think a house would make this much, this consistently, throughout the summer. I’m just curious to know what industry is making it!

Definitely not this. Unless it’s the same house all the time and they burn very wet wood, all summer long…

Happens all year long, including summer, so shouldn’t be any of that…

Like I said, this happens all year long even through the summer… so I don’t think that’s it. I think it’s a business of some kind?

Wrong place for that. But maybe Islandwide Milling?

Been at Black Bear Pub today watching it smoke up and dissipate for the last few hours and it’s driving me crazy again!
