Razorback Mountain

This is one of the sights you'll take in between Merritt and Hope if you travel the Coquihalla Highway that connects the Interior to the Coast.

Flying High

These guys caught me off guard in trying to get the right lens on my camera in time to get a half-decent photo while traveling down the highway past Hope. Apparently this is called aerotowing. The tow plane was likely towing the glider to the place and height where the glider pilot would have released the rope. I couldn't stick around long enough to confirm this is what happened though.

Spur of the Moment Sunset

I didn't have my camera with me when I happened upon this sunset over some farmland in Walnut Grove. I couldn't let it go to waste - my camera phone had to do.

Sugar-Topped

A fresh dusting of snow at the higher elevations made it look like somebody took a giant sifter and coated the mountain tops with icing sugar. Being stuck in traffic going north on 176th Street in Cloverdale has its advantages when you have a camera handy. For a time lapse look at this mountain range taken with my camera's video capabilities, check this out.

Mountain Majesty

During a jaunt across the Golden Ears Bridge with my bicycle I had a nice view of the mountain range on the north side. The sun trying to break through the clouds highlighted the snow-capped peaks. Even dreary days don't take away from the surrounding beauty here.
