Serious bike accident serves as a warning to use caution when trail riding (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last Saturday started like any other, at least what I can remember. It didn't end that way. Let's just say it's a cautionary tale. After writing a story (I found a copy), I decided to e-bike to Knox Mountain to shoot some photos of the Paul's Tomb Trail for an upcoming column in my Wild and Wonderful Walks series. The next thing I remember was waking up in the Kelowna General Hospital emergency department. Constant Companion Carmen asked: "Are you OK? You crashed your bike on Knox Mountain." "To
Linear parks galore in the southern Interior, especially in Kelowna (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Southern Interior wasn't the first to begin establishing linear parks but the region has taken them to heart and created wonderful outdoor recreational opportunities.

A 2.6-kilometre section from Commonwealth to Beaver Lake roads, through the Okanagan Indian Band reserve, remains unfinished. A 500-metre section north of Beaver Lake Road, now pa
Rail trail series produces hidden history (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When the Sheriff wrote a recent series about rail trail history, it prompted readers to share their fascinating stories—and it was not only Okanagan residents but the columns made it all the way to Ontario. C.A. (Kit) Kennard, of Port Credit, Ont., wrote: "Thanks for this interesting and important article (on the KVR) but I believe you missed another key player in all this, James J. Warren. "My understanding is that JJW (my great grandfather) solicited CPR president Thomas Shaughnessy about buil
