The mysterious Puntledge box

Puntledge,Comox Valley,mystery,Duncan Bay Main,Stotan Falls

I have no idea what the purpose of this box is – it’s located downstream of the Duncan Bay Main logging road bridge at Stotan Falls, on the northwest side of the BC Hydro penstock access road right at the edge of the bank dropping down into the Puntledge. If you want to check it out, it’s close to 49°40′52″N 125°03′17″W.

Someone will know, and then so will you and I.

According to a media relations person from BC Hydro, it’s old telemetry gear used during BC Hydro’s water use planning process in 2004 or so. The equipment was used to measure fish habitat – depth and velocity.
