Well, I for one have been stewing on this one. At least I was able to zero in on the map area. But SaraC seems to prefer to hyder clues so well that I cannot find anything that might solve this one. Here's a Gmap4 embedded map showing the area. Switch to Satellite mode and zoom out to see the same view as above. Gmap4 embedded version ( Same map, separate window)

If you had a border collie there, would you know exactly where he should patrol?

Sheesh! With all that white in the satellite picture, I was looking for some shoreline with glaciers involved. Is it tropical coral that makes the satellite view so light?

One thing I did learn in digging up that picture: The English translation of cochinos as pigs is erroneous. In the Caribbean, it is a common name for the Orangeside triggerfish (Sufflamen verres), that inhabits coral reefs in BahÃa de Cochinos, rather than swine (Sus scrofa).

Nevertheless, I can produce a post-1938 story about a lost US nuclear bomb in which Stewart-Hyder plays a important role. But if you want to provide the real solution, be our guest.

I'll let the border collie tell the real story. All I found was that maybe some RCMP found aliens bodies in a nearby cave, and or a nearby avalanche disaster. No royalty involved though. A lot has happend in BC but nothing in this part of BC that I can find.

73 looks like the impression left by the aircraft that had Jabba the Hut and Princess Laya in the final movie of the first set of three Star Wars 5 I believe.

73: This is not yet another coal-fired power station stack under construction. It is unique - in the world.
