Clean and Efficient


Location: Stave Lake Powerhouse Museum, back area of Mission/Maple Ridge B.C.
Time of Year: April 4, 2009
Other Info: These pipes for many years powered the turbines at the dam providing clean and efficient electricity. Hydro power and B.C. fit like a hand in glove with unending rain, as it sometimes seems, and the topography of many valleys which contain damable rivers. There are issues with hydro power but it beats the alternatives of dirty energy known as coal.
The Stave Lake Powerhouse museum is an interesting place and a great place to take some photos with a tripod due to a minimal flow of people. The cost to walk around is a minimal $6.00 so if you are searching for a place to shoot photos check this place out.
