Ke kalaiwa nei i ka hoʻohana ʻana - BC Native Information
ʻO ka pule hope loa wau i holo kaʻa holoʻokoʻa ma o ka hoʻohana ʻana iā South Okanagan-West Kootenay no ka ʻelima mau mahina he 12 i ka lālani. Lawe wau i ʻehiku mau lā e hoʻopili i nā ala a me nā ala nui, kū ma nā hale inu a me nā wahi ʻai me ke ala maikaʻi loa e māʻona ai nā mea koho a hele pū me lākou ma kā lākou ala. ʻO kēia mau mahina he 12 i mālama au e māʻona ai i nā patios ākea ākea kahi e kamaʻilio ai mākou ma kahi mamao. A i ka manawa hou e noho ana ka huakaʻi e like me ka mea i manaʻo ʻia - nā kamaʻilio maikaʻi ʻana ma nā ʻano kumuhana āpau, ke aniau maikaʻi a me nā wahi nani a puni o kēia hoʻohana maikaʻi.
Ua hoʻomaka wau i ka huakaʻi me kekahi mau hoa holo paikikala ma Glenfir, ma kahi o ʻewalu mau mile ma ka ʻākau o Naramata ma ke alahele ʻo Kettle Valley Railway. Ua hōʻea mākou i Penticton i ka manawa no ka ʻaina kakahiaka a me kahi haʻalulu e Mike Farnworth, ke Kuhina BC o Security Public. No ke kumu o ke ahi ʻana ʻo Christie Mountain hearth a ʻo ka keʻena ʻo Emergency Operations Center kahi palaka wale nō, ua lawe wau i ke kuhina i ka EOC e hoʻopaʻapaʻa i ka ipu ahi e hakakā ana a me nā neʻe ʻana a me nā papa i ʻike ʻia mai nā makahiki i hala.
Ma hope o ka pau ʻana o ka hau kalima ma Okanagan Falls a me ka ʻaina awakea ma Oliver, ua kiʻi hou wau i loko o ka kaʻa ma Osoyoos a holo aku iā Huge White, ke komohana komohana o ka hoʻohana ʻana. Ua hui wau me nā ʻōiwi ʻōiwi ma ka ʻaina kakahiaka i ke kakahiaka aʻe, a laila kiʻi hou i ke ala KVR ma McCulloch a kaʻa kaʻa i ka 60 km i Beaverdell.
Ua hui mākou i kekahi mau kime o ka poʻe holo paikikala ma ke ala i mahalo i ke ala ʻoiai e ʻōlelo ikaika ana e mālama ʻia ia i nā kūlana kiʻekiʻe no nā poʻe holo kaʻa. Ma Carmi ua hāʻawi mākou i kahi wahi nānā ʻo BC Wildfire e mālama nei i nā poʻe mai kahi ākea o Carmi Creek kahi e puhi nei kahi kapuahi. ʻO ka lede e mālama ana i ka wahi nānā i ukuhi ʻia me ka makana no ka lalo a me nā luina ʻea e hakakā ana i ka lua ahi a me kekahi ma Solomon Mountain a puni ke awāwa.
Ma luna o ka pizza ma Rock Creek ua kamaʻilio wikiwiki wau me ke poʻo kumu kumu ʻōiwi e pili ana i ka wehe hou ʻana o nā koleke a me kahi kūkākūkā lōʻihi ʻana me kahi kanaka ʻoihana kaiāulu e pili ana i ka ʻike kālā ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi no Beaverdell i ka hoʻololi ʻana o nā poʻe a hana hou i loko o ka mea maikaʻi maoli e pili ana i ka West Kettle Awāwa.
I ka lā aʻe ua hoʻomau wau i ke ala KVR i Rock Creek, kahi aʻu i mākaʻikaʻi ai i ka Riverside Center hou, kahi mea hou hoihoi i ka wahi e hāʻawi ai i ka ʻikepili mea kūʻai, nā hui kaiaulu, kahi hana o nā alaloa a me nā hui panakō i hāʻawi ʻia e ka helu ʻaiʻāina ʻo Osoyoos. Uniona. Ua ʻai mākou i ka ʻaina ahiahi ma ka Keg a me Kettle Grill ma Halfway, kahi hale ʻaina hou loa e hana nei i kahi ʻoihana ulu i nā hanana paʻakikī.
I ke kakahiaka ʻehā, ua launa au me Ciel Sander, ka mea lawelawe ma ke ala ʻōiwi, no ka huakaʻi e like me Eholt a iho pono i Grand Forks. Ua hāʻawi lokomaikaʻi ʻo Ciel iaʻu i kāna e-uila luhi momona, e haʻi ana he papa weliweli ka papahele o kēia ʻāpana a paʻakikī hoʻi no nā keke kaʻa e like me kaʻu.
Ua hui pū nā lālā o ka Grand Forks pōʻaiapuni iā mākou kokoke iā Eholt (i waenakonu o ka Hornges Tunnel pouli loa e kikoʻī!) A ʻike i ka pilikia i ka mālama ʻana i nā mea pōhaku a me ke one o ke ala ke kaʻana like ʻia me nā malihini kipa motoka. Ma muli o kēia mau huila momona (a me ke kōkua pedal uila!), Ua hōʻea au no ka ʻaina awakea ma Grand Forks i ka manawa kūpono kahi kahi a kahi hui ʻē aʻe i ʻākoakoa ai no nā kūkā kamaʻilio ʻana ma ka pā o ke ala hele wāwae me nā kumuhana e hoʻomaka ana mai nā pilikia a puni ka 5G pūnaewele hale kiaʻi i nā politika i kēlā me kēia nā pae mahalo.
Ua hāʻule wau i ka mea kūʻai uila hou loa ma ke kūlanakauhale nui ʻo Grand Forks e kamaʻilio me ka mea nona e pili ana i ka paipai ʻana i ka paikikala (ʻo nā hale kūʻai paikikala ma nā wahi āpau i hoʻokahuli ʻia e ka ʻoihana ma COVID) akā ua nānā pono wau me ka nānā ʻana i nā e-uila me nā kaila momona.
Ma muli o ke kaha ʻana o Grand Forks i ka pae waena o kaʻu huakaʻi, he pae kūpono loa kēia e wahī i kēia kolamu a e hoʻopau wau i ka hōʻike i ka pule aʻe. Nā ala hele hauʻoli!
