Buildings Filmed Between Houston And Burns Lake British Columbia (Pictures)
Above Photo: I don’t believe the buildings are very old, but they looked really
interesting and made for a nice picture.
We always try to keep a lookout for something nice to film. On one of our recent drives out to Burns Lake, British Columbia we spotted some buildings in an open field.
They looked interesting so I stopped the car and walked into the field and took a number of pictures.

Fall Colors Filmed At Seymour Lake Smithers British Columbia (Photos)
Above Photo: This photo was taken around Seymour Lake.
Seymour Lake is a small lake located approximately 3.7 kilometers from the town of Smithers, B.C.
I have not personally fished the lake, but I hear the fishing can be good. So check it out, take a rod along with you and good luck.

There is also the Seymour Ridge Trails for folks who like to go hiking, I found some information and map on the hiking trails at this Link.
Here is a map for directions from the town of Smithers to Seymour Lake, which is found on the way up to the Hudson Bay mountain ski hill.

Today on September 27, 2015 my wife, dog and I went up Hudson Bay mountain in Smithers and the scenery was just awesome. The fall colors are at their best and I would recommend that if anyone enjoys observing or taking pictures of breathtaking scenery, Seymour Lake is the place to go right now. It was so pretty today I could not stop talking about the colors of the trees, plants, etc..

Also there were a bunch of Canadian Geese on the lake making a heck of a sound, I guess taking a break from their long journey south.
We did drive up to the top of the ski hill and I took photos along the way. There was some amazing sights, and you just can’t capture that on film, it is a must see.

Smithers is one of those gems in British Columbia. There are so many things to do and see and I have been finding them and putting the pictures I have taken up on this Travel blog of mine.
Over the winter months I will be writing up a large article about traveling Highway 16 from Prince George right through to Prince Rupert/Kitimat, B.C. and everything in-between.

Irrigation Lake/Scenery And Old Building Filmed Around Houston British Columbia (Photos)
Above Photo: The Bulkley River in Houston, British Columbia. Actually I took a picture from this very same spot in Summer. Here is a link to this.
I also will post a winter photo from the same location as well.
My wife and I decided to get out of the home for a while and I thought I would take some new photos of the Fall colours that are present in our small town of Houston, British Columbia.
So we drove around Houston, and I snapped some photos of what we saw.
We also headed out a short distance from Houston to a small lake, where in summer people flock to Irrigation Lake to go swimming, sunbathing, fishing, hiking and they take along a picnic basket for their lunch. You can also cook some hot-dogs and hamburgers over fire pits. There is a sandy beach for the little ones to make sandcastles, or just to dig a big hole to get lost in. There are toilets/outhouses on site, and change rooms.

If you do decide to try your luck at fishing, only electric motors are allowed on the lake and of course you can paddle around in a canoe. Also in winter, many folks are seen out on the frozen lake ice fishing, and they do pretty good catching some nice sized trout.
Irrigation Lake is located approximately 14 km west of Houston, B.C. on Highway 16. There is a sign located on the highway to the right hand side of the road just before you get to the lake’s turnoff, giving you a heads up, but one has to be careful as the main sign/turnoff for the lake comes up really quick and I know I have had to slam on my brakes to make the left hand turn off of the highway and onto the lake’s gravel road.

I think I might bring this up at one of the town’s meetings as it can be a bit dangerous to the public.
I also added some photos of scenery in which I took when leaving Irrigation Lake and driving back into Houston on highway 16. We finally decided to go home, but something really
interesting caught my eye.

I must have driven by this old building hundreds of times and never gave it a thought, or noticed it until today. So below I have added three pictures of the old building. I will check in town to see if there is any records on the building.
