Yesterday we arrived at the Ira Spring trailhead at around 8 AM, found the parking lot full and a few dozen cars parked along the road. Not wanting to hike with a horde, we turned around and left. Over 20 cars passed us on the four mile drive back to the freeway. Who knew that 7/4 was such a popular hiking day!
So we fell back on the hike to the fuel truck. Saw no one all day. The fuel truck is getting so rusty even the graffiti is rusting off.
Happy Truck Thursday!
The arctic community on Igloolik island has seen settlement in one form or other, reaching back more than four thousand years. For all but the recent past century its inhabitants lived a nomadic existence, gathering what was needed from the surrounding land and sea.
In modern times, the current population set at roughly 1800, relies entirely on fossil fuel imported annually from the south for all of its energy. Fresh food and the other basic necessities of life are flown in daily. Igloolik is not unique in this regard.
While it is the arctic that sees the greatest impact of climate change, its inhabitants, the fastest growing population in Canada, has the highest carbon footprint, despite having the most to lose by a continued dependance on fossil fuel.

Wilbur always likes to get to the top of things so of course he had to hop up on the roof of the fuel truck.
Hope your Thursday was a good one. Happy Truck Thursday!

At its Palaestra building in London SE1, Transport for London exhibits the building's hydrogen fuel cell power generators next to the entrance. The £2.4m combined heat and power plant will generate cost savings of £90,000 annually. The six flatscreens run an animation explaining the building's CO2 reducing measures but one wonders if the message wouldn't have been more effective if it was shown on posters instead of burning some of the kWh saved on powering the flatscreens.

As noted in the prior scan, 130 and 129 had a split fuel tank, one for fuel and one for boiler water. This shows the difference with sister 159, which has the standard 1/2 fuel tank and the other half as added weight that included a tool box, spare knuckles and chains. Ah, the sound of that Nathan P5...
