How big is Vanderhoof? Thanks for the post as there are always pieces of the puzzle missing, and more times than not, there is someone local who can answer simple questions if you are in the area, not so simple if you live 3 provinces over.

Just like the VMS strike. I have fished Iswkwasum lake 19 out of the last 20 years and it is across the road from the VMS strike. Nobody seemed to know that it is in "grass river provincial park". And just north across the road is REED lake, a big lake, you may own the claim but it is hard to mine in a lake that is 50 feet deep. As well Wildcat is the closest company to the vms strike, and got some excited but their property in the area, is almost all covered in water as well. I am actually quit familiar with the snowlake area.

Never question the "man on the ground"...My assumption was that a road to TCM would require a substancial investment, now a couple of posts later that is definately not the case...

thanks BBoB
