    Description

    Hi! We are the Snows and Uncle John a family of 4. We live in the Rocky Mountains of British Columbia in Golden. We have lots of projects on the go, presently we are working on preparing a house site, clearing some of the forest to create site lines for mountain views. We’re also doing some painting cleaning up around the yard,getting firewood-always-we have a big garden that needs tending. We love being outside so indoor stuff often gets put off, cooking cleaning so we can always use help there too. We have an RV trailer set up for accommodation in a campsite we built near the river and there are plenty of tenting spots.

Its a wonderful place to meet people living/visiting the area. It is definitely a popular destination to visit being within 2 hours of 6 National Parks and endless opportunity to explore.
