Knight Inlet Ldoge micro hydro report
Our micro hydro system has worked out well this winter. With almost 8 weeks of operation we have saved close to 4,000 litres of diesel fuel to date. As we gear up for the 2012 season and our preseason fisheries project we will have to switch to our diesel generator since our electrical requirements will be beyond what our micro hydro can produce. Still all in all we are very pleased with what we have been able to do this winter.

Grizzly Bear Viewing at Knight Inlet Lodge
Knight Inlet Lodge had another successful grizzly bear viewing year in 2011 and is looking forward to 2012. Our grizzly bear viewing season opens on May 17 and will run until October 15, 2012. The response of our guests to the lodge and our program and what we do is a very gratifying one that never grows old. While working at a grizzly bear viewing lodge sounds like fun, and it is, like anywhere it does have its challenges. It is the energy and good spirits of our guests that help smooth out the rough spots that go with any job.
Important notice from Spirit Of the West regarding proposed logging near Robson Bight
Re: Proposed clear cut logging activity at Boat Bay, West Cracroft Island
Hello fellow kayak operators, whale watchers, tourism-oriented businesses and users of Johnstone Strait.
We hope you had a good season full of guests, sunshine and wonderful wildlife and wilderness. We know
that we are all probably very ready for a rest after ‘the busy season’, but we write to you now to ask for
your help.
