Mountain bike challenge ends



It has been a week since the Mountain Bike Challenge has ended. We have results for all participants. Rider Ms. J has first place and fastest time riding 10 KM at 22 Minutes and 31 seconds. Rider Smiley is second fastest time at 24 minutes and 29 seconds. Rider Grumpy is third fastest at 25 minutes and 55 seconds. A minor bike malfunction may have put Grumpy closer to first place, better luck next time. Notable and very congratulatory mentions go out to Rider Speedy Gonzales whose time improved more than 20 minutes faster by the end of the competition and most times ridden. Rider Good Karma was our youngest rider who even had time to enjoy a snack along the way, and Rider Pokey was, well, pokey. We couldn't have done it without her. 

Big thanks to all who enjoyed the ride, the time trial, and our natural surroundings. End of the Road Adventures has some prizes too, for MS J/ RIDER GRUMPY/ RIDER SPEEDY GONZALES / RIDER GOOD KARMA.
You all deserve a 1st place Trophy. Thanks again for taking part, we look forward to next summers course and family friendly trials and trails.

CBC article about Tahsis Road

Fatal logging road accident reignites concerns over condition of road to Tahsis

'We must travel this road and it's not being taken care of,' said resident Lori Bennett

Tahsis is a remote village on the northwest coast of Vancouver Island, but its residents say the road leading there is hazardous. (Shutterstock)
The road between the small village of Tahsis and Gold River on Vancouver Island is long and windy. The forest service road — the only way in and out of Tahsis — has a paved section, but the rest is made up of gravel.
It's a route Tahsis resident Lori Bennett has travelled many times before.
Friday night's fatal bus crash on a forest service road to Bamfield has reignited concerns about road safety across the province and, for Bennett, at home
In May, she was leaving her village en route to an appointment in Campbell River, when a deer jumped in front of her car.
Bennett said she instinctively jerked the wheel. On any other road, she believes she would've been able to correct, but she says the gravel was thicker than normal, like "ball bearings."
She lost control.
"Oh, this is going to be bad," she remembers thinking as her car plummeted 23 metres off a cliff, rolling end-over-end three times.
"I was absolutely shocked to find that I was OK," Bennett said.
Other members of her community of 248 year-round residents haven't always been as lucky. Her friend went off the road in April 2018 and is now in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.
Lori Bennett's vehicle was totaled after she drove off of Head Bay Road, falling 23 netres and flipping three times. She says the thick gravel on the road made it impossible to regain control of her car. (Submitted by Lori Bennett)

'The road is hazardous'

For those living in Tahsis, certain much-needed amenities lie in neighbouring communities; the closest is 65 kilometres away. Bennett says she travels to Campbell River for everything from groceries to doctor appointments.
"Everything is out there, and we must travel this road," but, she says, it's not being taken care of.
Bennett says she had raised her concerns with the province, but she fears the government won't be able to justify a paved road for a village with such a small population.
"We live here because of the beauty and it's affordable," she said. "But the road is hazardous."
Residents say driving between Gold River and Tahsis can be quite a bumpy ride

The province made upgrades to 13-kilometres of the road in 2018, applying sealcoating which included spraying a mixture of asphalt and water onto the road, then spreading and compacting a layer of gravel to embed it into the asphalt. Another 13 kilometres had previously been sealed.
But Bennett is concerned about the other 60 per cent of gravel road.

Residents frustrated over alleged lack of upkeep

The contract to maintain Head Bay Road switched hands last year, eventually being awarded to road maintenance company Mainroad, which is responsible for grading operations to ensure a level road along the route.
"Crews perform grading operations on a regular basis, sometimes weekly or even daily depending upon the weather conditions as per the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure's contract specifications," said Mainroad in a statement.
But Bennett says there are always potholes and her concerns are echoed by Tahsis deputy mayor Sarah Fowler. 
"The road is breaking down our cars and it's breaking down our bodies," said Fowler.
Since the contract was awarded to Mainroad, she alleges she hasn't personally seen the grader in action, only parked at the side of the road.
Among the residents, Fowler says there's a consensus that there's a lack of compliance by Mainroad to fulfill its contractual duties and a lack of oversight by the province — at the expense of those who call Tahsis home.
"A lot of people are very frustrated," said Fowler.  "We feel like we take our lives in our hands every day we go out." 

Ministry finds Mainroad in compliance

The CBC reached out to the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure which said staff has completed over 50 monitoring records and three audits on Head Bay [Forest Service Road] since Mainroad began its contract in September 2018.
It said it has found Mainroad to be in compliance with the ministry's maintenance specifications, adding ministry staff perform visual inspections of the road at least once every three weeks.
But, the ministry acknowledged the concerns of Tahsis residents.
"The ministry will continue to work with its maintenance contractor to ensure they continue to meet the specifications for this road maintenance as required by their contract."
Deputy mayor Fowler says she will follow up with the minister at a scheduled meeting of the Union of B.C. Municipalities in September.

Update from Coast Guard on construction in Tahsis

"News from British Columbia: Construction of the new Search and Rescue station in Tahsis is underway. Scheduled for completion in the summer of 2020, it will house a 14.7-metre lifeboat and operate 24-hours-a-day, 365 days-a-year. We are working with the Mowachaht/Muchalaht First Nation and the Village of Tahsis on this project funded under the Oceans Protection Plan."

Guided by spirits: Master carver finds inspiration in ancestral home

Eric Plummer, August 23, 2019

Yuquot, BC — 
Inch by inch, the images of a wolf, killer whale and eagle are becoming evident under Sanford Williams’ carving knife. It’s a morning in late July at Williams’ carving shed on the shore of Yuquot, an ancient Mowachaht settlement on the south end of Nootka Island where he grew up.
“The calmness of being here, it’s so nice - even just listening to the waves coming in,” said Williams as he works through the final stages of the totem pole. “I can sometimes feel the spirits when I come here. It sometimes feels like they’re guiding me.”
The carver spends most of the year in Hope, where he lives with his wife Marlana. In the summer he returns to Yuquot, where his parents Terry and Ray Williams have the only remaining household since the Mowachaht/Muchalaht First Nation relocated its on-reserve community to Gold River in the late 1960s. With a cedar smell seasoning the air, chips fall to a thick bed of shavings on the ground, an indication of Williams’ years of exertion into forming images out of wood.
His latest creation is carved from a cedar log that Williams found on Yuquot’s beach in June.
“Every time I come home I go scouting the beaches looking for logs,” said the carver. “We get a lot of logs that drift in during the winter.”
Plans are for the totem pole to be erected outside a Canadian Coast Guard Station in Tahsis. This summer construction began on the station, which will serve the surrounding Nootka Sound area, with a scheduled completion in 2020.
Earlier this year the Coast Guard approached Williams for the project, asking for designs. He began working on the log with an electric chainsaw, carving out basic shapes. Then, using his hand tools, details became more refined. He says the process quickens with each progressive stage as the final images become more evident.
“First stage is roughing, second stage is getting it all ready for designing,” he said. “It ends up getting quicker as you go along.”
The totem pole depicts a wolf transforming into a killer whale, a sacred being in the Nuu-chah-nulth world. The importance of the orca was evident in July 2001 when a lone killer whale was spotted in Nootka Sound, three days after the passing of Mowachaht/Muchalaht Tyee Ha’wilth Ambrose Maquinna.
“Our chief, when he died he wanted to come back as a killer whale,” recalled Williams. “That was when Luna came around.”
On the top of the totem pole is an eagle, a design addition made after consultation with the First Nation’s elders. Williams said his people turn to the eagle for guidance.
“He’s way up in the sky watching over the ocean and the ground because he goes after small critters on the ground and he goes after fish in the ocean,” he said. “That’s kind of how coast guard and search and rescue is here; on the lookout for people in distress.”
The totem pole is part of a body of work 38 years in the making, a career that had its origins during Williams’ childhood in Yuquot. He remembers watching his uncle, the late Dominic Andrew, work with wood while staying with the family.
“He used to wake up real early in the morning,” said Williams. “I used to kind of watch him. It got my interest. Then I started painting on canvas.”
His dedication to art intensified at the age of 14 when Williams made his first carving.
“My mom said, ‘If you can draw and paint, you can carve’. So I really thought about it back then,” he said. “I locked myself in my room for about four days and came out with a mask.”
After high school, Williams attended the Gitanmaax School of Northwest Coast Indian Art in Old Hazelton, B.C. for four years. He ended up living there for 11 years, developing his craft. He often assisted carvers when they had contracts in the area.
“That’s how I learned to do large projects like these poles, was through the master carvers in the summertime,” said Williams.  
When the totem pole is eventually erected in Tahsis, Williams hopes the piece will remind people of the land the new Coast Guard station was built on. Tahsis historically served as a winter home for the Mowachaht/Muchalaht First Nation.
“I’m hoping that it will change more things in the future. When new buildings go up that are on native land, that we’ll have that connection. This here is just a start,” he said.
