Tweddle Creek Fire


Nice day for a forest fire.


Lightning from this storm made a few strikes on the mountain.
About ten minutes later: see that little puff of wrong coloured cloud?


We called the wildfire hotline, then went out for a closer look.


That just might be a bad place to fly a water bomber.


The fire, at approximately 45 minutes.


The culprit, looking cheerful and innocent. It dumped torrential quantities of water on Keremeos and Cawston, but unfortunately not on the fire.


Two days later.


About three weeks later.



Catching the sunset.

Wet Trail

I meant to post this a month ago.



We went on a day hike to the Northeast corner of Manning Park. The trails were still half covered in snow.



Foot skiing with your friends:






Our destination: Nicomen Lake
