A soft goal is to bike or walk 4 hours a week, three weeks ago I was sick, so i only manage to do half of it... this morning I did the green route walking... part of an artificial motivation is to walk (and/or bike) different routes every time... winter in a hilly city is not the best for biking... so mainly walking...

The other bridge.
This bridge over the #FraserRiver is for the #Skytrain, the #Metro, the #Subway, the #Tube of metro #Vancouver
#Surrey is connected to #NewWestminster via transit via this bridge. (Surrey should have been New Surrey?, or even better QayQayt as the indigenous peoples called it.) -
#BritishColumbia #FirstNations are initiating an #emergency #salmon #TaskForce to investigate the impact on the #sockeye salmon due to last week’s #Chilcotin River #landslide.
“Chilcotin Rivers are kind of our identity,” Nits’ilʔin (Chief) Francis Laceese, Tl’esqox said at a press conference on Tuesday.
“Same with the salmon, you know, that’s basically who we are. That’s our biggest food source.”
#Tŝilhqotin National Government (TNG) is calling on all levels of government, downstream First Nations, the #PacificSalmonCommission, and other nations and states, especially #Alaskan #fisheries, to take all precautionary measures possible to conserve Tŝilhqot’in territory-bound salmon, and to immediately cease from fisheries that may impact these stocks, until the impacts from the landslide and breach are fully understood.
A massive landslide came down last Wednesday, damming the Chilcotin River, which leads into the #FraserRiver

The #CowichanRiver #estuary is one of the largest & most important in #BritishColumbia. The #watershed drains 90,000 hectares & provides #CriticalHabitat to dozens of #fish species, including #steelhead, #Chinook, #chum, #coho & #PinkSalmon, as well as brown, #cutthroat & #RainbowTrout. But the #Cowichan’s troubles are by no means unique; they are a #CaseStudy for a much larger problem.
#TimberCompanies store #LogBooms all along the #BCcoast, says Jamieson Atkinson, a fish #biologist & program manager for the #Aquatic #Research & #Restoration Centre at #BritishColumbiaConservationFoundation. “It’s shocking.” While #estuaries make up less than 3% of British Columbia’s coast, they provide rich #habitat for 80% of the province’s coastal #wildlife. The #FraserRiver estuary, near #Vancouver on the mainland, supports more than 300 species of #birds & 80 species of fish & #shellfish for at least part of their life cycles.

The #SkyTrain in the Greater Vancouver Area crosses in two points the #FraserRiver, the cross between #NewWestminster and #Surrey is one of the longest transit bridges in the world
