Telegraph Cove Rebuilding Progress

Got sent some pic from early in the week but looks like lots of progress since then. Also I can see my permanent moorage spot and it makes me want to be there now. Thanks for posting.

Right on. Went there for the first time 36 years ago now when i was 16 and just got my licence and a tinny with a 10hp motor. Drove all the way from Maple Ridge on my own at 16 to go try my luck fishing there. Read about the North Island in Rodderick Haig Brown books growing up.
Gordie gave me a lot of salmon fishing tips when i would stay there. I think he's one of the fastest trollers ive ever seen lol but he knew how to catch them. Have been back quite a few times over the years since then and have brought friends and family there too. Was very sad to see the damage from the fire when it happened. Now that I live close by its a lot easier for me to pop in from time to time.
 
Like many of you, I first went to TC more than 35 years ago, and was dismayed to see the destruction of the fire. I am amazed and impressed by the determination and drive of the 80 year olds who own the resort and those who operate the Whale Interpretive Centre and have led the rebuild. Legendary.

I'm thinking that as many of us who can should show up this summer and thank them for their commitment - renting a cabin or moorage, buying a meal or a beer.

Agreed. I will be at least a couple times through Summer.
