in response to the peace country bush, well i was from that area and
spent a few years drilling for oil very close to there.The scale of
drilling is a lot bigger, heavy loads, and a lot of water obstacles.
I can't remember going in any earlier than first week of june.It's
very marshy thick clay, one rain would delay us for weeks.Diamond
drilling is alot smaller scale,i can't see them being in there for a
little while yet.But it has been a unusally dry year.For such a high
spec stock .18 is low an worth throwing a few pennies at.

Al,

Weather's a little cold and wet up here, we had three inches of snow on Saturday and a light fall again today. We're quite a bit higher elevation wise compared to CYR's property.

I was in Grande Prairie on the weekend, its only 60 km from CYR's property. The weather there has been dry and warm. They did get a little snow on Saturday as well, but things are much better in that area. I talked to several people who are employed in the oil patch around Grande Prairie, and they seem to think break up may last about another 10 days if the dry weather continues. I don't know if the smaller rigs will be able to start operating sooner than that or not. Let's hope for favourable weather, and for CYR's drill to be turning in a week or so.
