I'm jealous looking at your photo's. Nearly eleven years since I was in BC.... I'm not happy! Funny thing about the snow. I spent three years east of Kelowna in the late eighties/early nineties. I'd like to come back and try another winter. Not sure what my (older) body will think though.

well, hope they stay small! i remember when St Helens blew in '80....my dad flew over it in a small plane afterwards, incredible pictures of utter devastation...
and snow is fun when your young....we been hit with a unseasonably warm & dry jan & the snow is back where it belongs- on the mountains lookin' pretty!
took dawg to the fraser river today, but went for a quick spin up Elk View to get some fog pics, but it was dissapating by the time i got up there
thats elk mt there, it's a fairly easy drive/hike, about 2500 ft less than Cheam mt
