![]() Muck Suckers odd picture of a house is a tale of privilege on the trail. This house is 3015 Valdez Pl. That BC Hydro power pole is inside Uplands Park, and not in the subdivision which has all its infrastructure underground. This swanky neighborhoods does not allow above-ground power poles, so the authorities must have decided to save money supplying power to new homes inside the subdivision by allowing Hydro to put an ugly power poles inside of Uplands Park, even though the power does nothing for the park. It benefits the subdivision. It is a tail of the aesthetics of the park versus the aesthetics of the subdivision. |

Here it is in close up.This is a day beacon which is a sign posted on land or water (unlit so for day time use). The beacon is a Starboard-junction Beacon that marks the junction of two channels and may be passed on either side. If the preferred channel is desired, the Starboard-junction Day Beacon should be kept on the vessel’s starboard (right) side when travelling upstream.
