I had never been to Murphy Lake near Powell River, its part of a chain of Alpine Lakes, Alpha, Beta Gamma and McVey Lakes are all very close to it. I wanted to actually get to McVey but we took a small side trip up towards Alpha just to see where the snow line was, along the way we came across this old pipe system.
I have not seen this style of pipe still around in years, its a funnel pipe, two pipes joined together each funnelling slightly smaller. This style of pipe was used to clear out the chute below, water jet it persay, usually these are never used as a culvert so it was interesting to see and after many years still in amazing shape
