  • This video we hang out around the Othello area where the Coquihalla took a lot of stuff in the flood. Even though repairs are currently being done the signs of devastation still exist. Some stunning arial footage of the new landscape and work done. At the end we tack on a flashback.

    Spectacular drone footage! The scale of the destruction is breathtaking. I love the before and after picture. There is no other source of news about the Coquihalla disaster and recovery -- that compares to yours. Please continue your public service!

    Thanks for reminding us that this work is still going on. People are complaining about the Provincial gas tax, but it is those revenues that are paying for these repairs and upgrades. Thanks to all the folks getting our infrastructure back!

    The power of flooding waters is amazing! I am a survivor of the 2013 floods in Alberta and the sights of flooding first hand were even more emotional than even videos and pics are. One man who came to help me after the floods was so shocked that even though he had watched many of the news reports he was unprepared for the actual effects. He likened it to a war zone! Others watching the news were reported to have mistaken the railroad tracks twisted to be a picket fence!

    At the start of this video is a large camper buried in the sand; I have to wonder if this is the same camper home that disappeared, along with the car, as seen in earlier videos. Otherwise, I am so glad that your updates continue! Well done!

      @@jamesalinio5277 They are open but probably will be worked on for quite some time to reinforce once again. Opening them at least on a temporary track was a big priority because you have to remember those companies are private! It is amazing how quick it gets done when it is costing them money every day to have it cut. Hope that info helps.

    So glad you are recording this - it's quite something to see the power of rain & water in action - to show that not all erosion takes eons to wear things away, that a significant rain event can cause catastrophic changes to the land and rocks in mere days, sometimes hours - so should give us pause to think. Also flooding ongoing in QLD & NSW, AUS - so destructive. Love the closing gratuitous Golden Canine shots! My Kelpie wanted to play! So sad!

    Thanks for the updates. Your doing a great job. I often wonder what's going on with all the damaged roads , bridges, railways and bridges . The big news channel's are to busy reporting about some cat that was rescued from a tree. Like they can't afford the gas to send a reporter out or their helicopter to give us weekly updates. Same goes for Horgan. Our politicians seem to of sweep this under the rug. Past Hope so who gives a care in the world. It's like people have lost track of what's important in our community's, regions, province's and country. .
    Thanks again for all your efforts.
