Aurora was out and about, but a bit faded last night. Taken from Pitt Lake, BC.

Much of the Aurora peaked after I went to bed, but I set up my camera on the balcony to timelapse over night and the results were pretty good.

Port Mann Bridge at sunset. This is taken only about a 15 minute walk from where we live. I'm so grateful to live in BC.

Just some shots from my overnight on Mt. Seymour Friday - Saturday. A balmy -4 c overnight, but lots of snow and a bit of wind.

the more we put junk stories out there like this, the more we normalize this concept.

Not a mama but a dad! Can't wait to take my daughter on an overnight but she's a bit nervous yet

I went once last March at Mt. Seymour, it was cold but fantastic. Hoping to do it this weekend again. Highly recommend it

A Guide to Snow Camping Near Vancouver Camping is a summer favorite, but snow camping offers an alternative. Itโ€™s more challenging, requiring quality gear and preparation. The guide provides beginner-friendly campsites like Lone Dโ€ฆ

Came across the great article for winter camping in Vancouver area. I have to try some of these out!

Can't imagine the photography opportunities too.

Yeah I try to get down there when I can but probably won't be going down there for a while now.

It is really one of my favorite places because with your car you get up such an amazing point so high. And I'd like to backpack there at some point in the future.

Larabee State Park, along Chuckanut Drive, Washington. A beautiful little stretch of road on the coast and a park that holds many good memories for me.

Two day Mt. Baker milky way streak!

This was from a year prior and I slept in the car at the top. Amazing how busy that parking lot is at 3am in the morning.
