Explorers like Captain George Vancouver, who charted and claimed what is now British Columbia in Canada, were also officers in the Royal Navy. The ships and crews were armed and were ready and trained to use violence against Native peoples or rival empires.

Pistols with long barrels, like this one, were commonly used by seamen were as ones with shorter barrels were issued to officers officers. These pistols were cheaper than the ones produced for the army and were mainly use for close combat with a heavy handle which could be used as a bludgeoning weapon.

Araucaria araucana (monkey puzzle tree)

The monkey puzzle tree evolved in the early Jurassic and it’s sharp pointed leaves, no doubt, dissuaded dinosaurs from eating them. Monkey puzzles have girl cones (photo 1) and boy cones (photo 2) on separate trees. The female cones mature in autumn, about 18 months after pollination, and contain about 200 seeds. They don’t start producing seeds until the tree is 40 years old. This tree is native to Argentina and Chile but because of logging, cattle grazing and climate change it is now on the Endangered Species List in its home range.

The monkey puzzle tree was introduced to European gardens by Archibald Menzies, a plant collector and surgeon on Captain George Vancouver’s circumnavigation of the globe in 1795.  Last year my neighbor planted a baby monkey puzzle in his front yard. Monkey puzzles can grow over a hundred feet tall and live for 1300 years so it’s unlikely that either of us will see this one grow to maturity. No problem. I have seen twenty or thirty monkey puzzle trees growing in my neighborhood. and although endangered in their native Chile, the international gardening community has assured their survival as a species.

please do tell about the pg cougars

okay i’m kissing you on the mouth rn for asking. i’ll try to be chill about this

in general the team is very close. partially bc prince george is so much further from other teams so travel is longer and also bc there’s nothing to do in pg and it’s so isolated from other cities so they basically just spend a lot of time with each other. something about being the joke of the league makes you closer…idk. the team this season has been the best they’ve been in a long time. they made it to round two of the playoffs for the first time in 17 years this season (only to be swept by seattle) but they’ve been fun to watch! and they have two top prospects that will be drafted in june. 

here's the notable players from this season. i was going to make a separate post for wheaty/wiebe to beg dallas/anaheim fans to like them next season but whatver. I can’t wait. 

chase wheatcroft #29 (from calgary, ab) was traded a few times and had a mediocre juniors career and went undrafted. winnipeg traded him in the 2022 offseason to pg because they had other 20 year olds and couldn’t keep him, but everyone likes to bring up that he was traded for a fourth round pick and then became one of the whl's top scorers. he’s said that he didn’t fit into the role winnipeg wanted for him, which was an older, enforcer type. he’s a lover, not a fighter. Even though pg has a reputation for being a physical, dirty team, he was a perfect fit. they gave him an “a” and the team and city loved him. literally so humble. he was a favourite for media stuff and the post-game show. he was signed by dallas in march.  

jaxsen wiebe #22 (moose jaw, sk) another undrafted overager, wiebe was also traded a few times. he won the ed chynoweth cup with edmonton last year. He’s a bit of a short fuse and is hated by most whl fans. before getting traded to pg he had five suspensions over three years for a total of 18 games. A lot of dirty hits/fights and generally a poor attitude, yelling at refs and fans, etc. he was suspended on his last team when he was traded in november but eventually he became really well liked in pg. eventually he and wheaty were put on the same line (the team socials call them wiebecroft) and wheaty tamed him...???and taught him how to love...<???idk??. he was invited to and attended the columbus dev camp in 2022 and he was signed by anaheim in march. during the playoffs he was kicked out of game three against seattle for a hit on colton dach and given a suspension so he didn’t get to play his last whl game. 

dynamic duo - riley heidt #27 (saskatoon, sk) and koehn ziemmer #13 (mayerthorpe, ab) are two forwards projected to go first round/early second round in the draft. Both were drafted to pg (ziemmer in 2019, heidt in 2020) and have played their whole junior careers there. despite technically being draft competition, they’ve been dubbed the “dynamic duo” because of their linemate chemistry. theoretically heidt is the playmaker and ziemmer scores the goals but in reality heidt's a princess and ziemmer is his enforcer. they played on opposite teams at the chl prospect game.

ethan samson #4 (delta, bc) was drafted by the flyers in 2021. unanimously voted the captain by the team in 2022 and totally deserves it. looks like he could kill you (and he could) but he also pats his teammates heads like mama duck when they score. was invited to 2022 wjc camp but didn’t make the team. part of the trio.

Honourable mention: goalies (the "ty's") tyler brennan #30 (winnipeg, mb) drafted to new jersey in 2022, ty young #33 (coaldale, ab) drafted to vancouver in 2022. brennan was the third goalie for canada's u18 team in 2021, also invited to the 2023 wjc team camp but didn't make the cut. part of the trio.

blake eastman #28: the third and final part of the “trio” with samson and brennan. he’s not the best player, a fourth liner. not tough enough to be an enforcer but he is definitely a shit disturber. has never blinked in his life. Eastman is the only one of the trio that wasn’t drafted and no pro team has taken interest in him. the trio was all drafted to the whl in 2018 and have played their entire junior careers in pg. samson and brennan will be moving on next year and it’s highly unlikely the cougars will keep eastman as one of their 20 year olds. i firmly believe he could be the new mascot. If he’s not already. 

the team vibes:

Tuesday 13th June 2023

Well, we had planned a lot for today and we knew it might be tough. Early start; hotel breakfast, then shuttle bus 1 mile back to the airport to buy a Canadian SIM card and then collect the rental from Mr Alamo. He kindly let us have a very nice Audi A4 in tasteful black. Now as motorists, we were able to drive to the ferry terminal at Tsawwassen to travel the 95 minute straits across to Nanaimo on Vancouver Island where we shall tour until Saturday.

The image I had was an island similar in size to the Isle of Wight. Absolutely not so, VI is 283 miles in length and 63 miles at its widest point. Named after Captain George Vancouver of the Royal Navy who explored the Pacific Northwest in the late eighteenth century, it is the world's 43rd largest island and Canada's 11th largest island. We intend in the limited time available to us to explore just a little of its beauty in the next few days.

After collecting a rubbery chicken and some sauv blanc we checked in for a couple of nights at our first Airbnb close to Lake Cowichan. A vast and beautiful lake some 3 square miles in size, sitting comfortably within broadleaf and Pine forests. Our lodgings are indeed most acceptable with one exception. Unloading the car of the groceries and rubbery chicken, we became aware of a herd of free-range birds of the same variety but very much alive. The leader of the gang was a bruiser of a cockerel worthy of a starring role in Chicken Run or Chainsaw Massacre. He took an immediate dislike to us and flew at us like a banshee, feathers flying, feet claws and beak working as choreographed road-drills taking chunks out of the leg department. We straight away complained to the host and now the said bird is incarcerated behind barbed wire whilst we are left applying a balm of savlon on wounded areas. Apparently he's a rescue bird! Clearly has more severe mental health issues than previously diagnosed on the psychiatrist's couch. The host was mortified vis-a-vis and produced within a very short period of time gifts of compensation.

The countryside here is glorious, and we shall spend time tomorrow exploring more of it.

ps the property has a bear fence surrounding it. If bears should go berserk, I doubt we packed sufficient savlon!

The Ultimate Guide to Outdoor Adventure at Mount Rainier National Park Washington

by Paige Guscott Discover the thrill of outdoor adventure at Mount Rainier National Park, Washington with our comprehensive guide. From hiking trails to breathtaking views, plan your ultimate escapade today! Join us now and embark on an unforgettable journey..... Introduction Welcome to Mount Rainier National Park Washington, a towering testament to nature's awe-inspiring beauty. Before we set foot on the trails or gaze up at the glacier-capped peaks, let's dive into the rich history of one of America's first national parks. Mount Rainier isn't merely a mountain; it's a place where past and present converge, inviting us to explore not just its landscapes but also its legacy. History of Mount Rainier National Park Washington Photo by WikiImages on Pixabay The story of Mount Rainier stretches back thousands of years, with its first human interactions traced to the Indigenous tribes who viewed the mountain as a spiritual icon. Known as "Tahoma" or "Tacoma" by the Indigenous peoples, this colossal stratovolcano has been a prominent landmark throughout the ages. European-American exploration began in the late 18th century, with the mountain being named after Rear Admiral Peter Rainier by Captain George Vancouver in 1792. Establishment of Mount Rainier as a National Park On March 2, 1899, President William McKinley signed legislation establishing Mount Rainier National Park Washington as America's fifth national park, putting it under the stewardship of the National Park Service. This pivotal moment marked the beginning of a concerted effort to preserve the mountain's ecosystems and cultural heritage. It was an acknowledgment of the park's extraordinary value, not only as a sanctuary for wildlife and flora but also as a source of inspiration and recreation for all those who visit. As we embark on our journey through Mount Rainier National Park, these foundational stories lay the groundwork for all that we will experience. From the first bloom of spring wildflowers to the silent watch of ancient trees, every element here tells a part of Mount Rainier's enduring tale. So, let's lace up our boots, fill our lungs with crisp mountain air, and prepare to be captivated by the park's many wonders, both visible and those tucked away in the folds of history. 5 Facts About Mount Rainier Carving a striking silhouette against the Washington skyline, Mount Rainier holds tales and truths as fascinating as its glaciers are deep. Following the rich history of this natural wonder, here are five intriguing facts that stand out about Mt Rainier: A Peak Like No Other Mount Rainier isn't just another mountain—it's the most glaciated peak in the contiguous United States, boasting 26 major glaciers that cover 35 square miles of its surface. These icy giants serve as the source for six major rivers, which in turn serve as foundational elements to the many different habitats located on and around the mountain. The Emmons Glacier, for example, is the largest single glacier by area, excluding ice fields, in the continental United States, and the Carbon Glacier lays claim to being the thickest and longest. This glacial grandeur not only shapes the side of the mountain but also supports a diverse ecosystem and supplies water to nearby communities. Elevation That Commands Respect Mount Rainier's summit stands proudly at an elevation of 14,411 feet, making it the highest mountain in Washington and the Cascade Range. This elevation doesn't just make for breathtaking views but also means that the weather can be unpredictable and severe. Even in summer, these heights can harbor cold temperatures and snowfall. Climbing to the summit is an adventure that requires preparation, respect for the mountain's power, and acknowledgement of its potential dangers. Volcanic Power Sleeping Beneath Beneath the serene snow-capped peak lies a giant slumbering volcano. Mount Rainier is part of the Pacific Ring of Fire and is considered one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world, due to its large amount of glacial ice and proximity to metropolitan areas. If awakened, the lahars—volcanic mudflows—could pose significant risks. The mountain's last eruption occurred over a century ago, and while currently quiet, scientists closely monitor its seismic activity for any signs of stirring. A Refuge for Biodiversity Mount Rainier National Park Washington's varied landscapes, from lush rainforests to subalpine meadows, create habitats for a wide array of wildlife. Over 200 species of birds, 65 types of mammals, and a plethora of plants thrive within its boundaries. In spring and summer, the meadows around Paradise explode in color with wildflower blooms—a spectacle which has garnered worldwide fame. The diversity found here is a testament to the park's commitment to conservation and the intricate balance of nature. Human Footprints Across Time Human history on Mount Rainier dates back thousands of years, with Indigenous peoples having forged a spiritual and practical relationship with the mountain long before European settlers laid eyes on it.....

Galiano Island

This excerpt is taken from my new e-book On Foot : Islands of British Columbia and the Sunshine Coast The first European to see the area around Galiano Island was the 18th Century Spanish explorer and naval officer, Dionisio Alcala-Galiano, while on a coastal mapping expedition. In 1792, he encountered the British Captain, George Vancouver, sailing just off the coast of this island, on a…

The Hancock off Lahaina, Maui, 1791, by Mark Myers (1945-)

The Boston brigantine Hancock is shown surrounded by native craft as she comes to anchor at the island of Maui in Hawaii on her voyage to the Pacific Northwest in 1791. The view shows the ship off West Maui near Lahaina with the island of Kahoolawe in the right background. Based on the topography of the West Maui Mountains and the perspective of Kahoolawe, the area depicted is near Olowalu, an anchorage just slightly east of Lahaina.

Hancock was typical of the American fur-trading vessels active in establishing the early trade routes linking the Pacific Northwest, Hawaii and China. These early trading voyages would later help to justify America's claims to sovereignty over these areas. The Hancock sailed from Boston under the command of her owner Samuel Crowell in November 1790 bound for the rich seal and otter hunting grounds in the Pacific Northwest. En route, after first stopping at Staten Island to take seals before proceeding around Cape Horn, she arrived in Hawaiian waters during the spring or early summer of 1791. This arrival is depicted in the present work. During this visit a plan by local natives and beachcombing ex-mariners to capture the Hancock was discovered and thwarted by her crew. Hancock then sailed north and east, arriving off the Queen Charlotte Islands on July 14, 1791.

There she joined company with the brigantine Hope, also out of Boston, owned by Thomas H. Perkins and under the command of Joseph Ingraham. In August, 1791 Hancock encountered Captain Robert Gray and Columbia Rediviva at Masset Sound on Graham Island in the northern part of the Queen Charlotte Islands. In October Hancock was back in Hawaiian waters, again in company with Captain Ingraham and Hope. Both ships were bound for Canton with a cargo of seal and otter pelts. It is not known if Hancock and Hope proceeded to China together, but both were at Canton in early 1792.

After successfully marketing her cargo in Canton, Hancock departed China on April 26, 1792 sailing with Hope and the small sealing schooner Grace. They arrived back in the Queen Charlotte Islands on July 3. George Vancouver, on board Discovery, reported encountering Hancock at Nootka Sound in May, 1793. Further data regarding this voyage has not been uncovered. However, it is likely Hancock sailed again to Canton in the winter of 1793 before returning home to Boston via the Cape of Good Hope.

Royal Navy Issue Cutless from the British Empire dated between 1791 - 1795 on display at the Vancouver Maritime Museum in Canada

Explorers like Captain George Vancouver, who charted and claimed what is now British Columbia in Canada, were also officers in the Royal Navy. The ships and crews were armed and were ready and trained to use violence against Native peoples or rival empires.

Cutlesses like this were issued to seaman for boarding and defensive actions and out of combat were stored on the ship. When needed they were often distributed to the seamen in a barrel on deck for easy access. Regulation cutlesses were produced by a number of manufacturers so they were not all the exact same pattern.

Steve Franks, Kelly Kulchak, James Roday, Dulé Hill

SF: There is a park near my house where there is a group that does civil war reenactment

KK: A scout troop of two F: It's just Henry with the boys after school

Adam Cohen, John Wood

It took a minute & a half for Hill to get a phone call on the commentary

Gus found the parachute, not Shawn.

KK: Do you remember, steve, when we called Tracy & said we wanted to do Civil War & she said "idk what that is"? because,,, they don't have a civil war up there, & why would civil war reenactors be in canada anyways? I'm totally confused.

Shawn-Hearing

SF: That's my guitar! It's not actually my guitar. JRr: You could own it! SF: I could but then I'd have to steal it

Handing the beard to the chief was Nelson & Ombudsman

They wrote lines about "she's in a nursing uniform how can I not stare at her" but then they SAW the uniform the costume department chose

It was not in the script to hold the little guy up close to his ear

That's Hill's Stand-in there DH: I was doing amovie in vancouver & they had a white guy being my stand-in. I was like "this doesn't make any sense!" JRr: "This isn't going to help the gaffer at all!" One reason for stand-ins is so that the gaffer can set up lights right for someone of the actor's height & skin tone.

Tracey my man!

KK: Hill will not tell you it's stupid, he'll take you aside & ask you questions until you realize how dumb it is

Shawn, Don't lose this watch. Henry Spencer Alright, take away "Shawn", "this watch", "Spencer". What does the revised inscription read? (You didn't know that when you asked him to remove the words?) Don't lose. Henry Clean. To the point. I like it.

Certain episodes are built around one moment. Captain crunch, shawn can only talk to a cat...

KK: Just becaue we built an entire episode around Shawn civil war reenacting with a george foreman, doesn't mean you have to see it

DH: Shawn Spencer two, burton guster nill. SF: I had a bunch of love interests for you but you didn't want to hear any of them

babe I WISH we'd seen juliet's trunk!

DH: This tunnel was about three feet tall, & the two of us were in there together. They asl about the chemistry between me & roday. It's things like this.
