Every once in a while, my work takes me across this great country of ours to a strange and different land… in this case, it happened to be all the way over to the funny-talking but mostly uninhabited (by humans) boreal forests of Labrador. The following pictures document some of the non-work fun to had […]
Read more "Labrador to the Core"Mexico is one of the classic vacation destinations for Canadians looking to get away from the cold and wet Northern climes we find ourselves in over the winter. The promise of warm weather, cheap tacos/cervezas and consistent surf was too much, and with a cousin getting married in Santa Barbara the added cost of the Mexico […]
Read more "Mexican’t wait to go back!"It’s been a few weeks now since I’ve felt the hot sun sting my arms and the warm ocean water sting my eyes but while the tan has faded from my skin, the relaxing memories of vacation still bring a smile to my face. I’m lucky to have a cousin smart enough to live in Santa Barbara, California, […]
Read more "SantaBarbara Sunshine"Everyone once in a while I ride a snowmobile, after which I fall into a reality-based melancholy state and resolve to bide my time… one day I too shall have a sled! Of course by then they’ll all have anti-gravity devices and getting stuck won’t be the most exhausting part of the day. Until then, […]
Read more "Miller Time"Well it seems like winter has finally started to shape up; I managed some time off of work, it was starting to snow and we had Trophy Mountain Chalet booked for a heap of fun and skiing in Wells Gray Provincial Park. The setup at Trophy is spectacular and our man Ian, (who’s an old-school […]
Read more "Wells Gray Pow-Ventures"So it’s no secret now that there’s not a lot of snow on the coast… thanks for blowing the top off that one MattCote. Citing mental health and pow-deficiency issues, we decided to load up Julian’s super-sick and highly functional Toyota HiAce (pronounced Hiiiiiiyaaaaa-che!!!) LandVehicle and travel out to the coast for music, friends, fires […]
Read more "SombrioBrobrahs"October was another busy month that resulted in an excess of heli-commuting and even some clear days. The mountains were dusted with snow and I compulsively took photos of them – these are the best. (The first couple pics are actually from the west, not north, and some of the later ones are from Gone […]
Read more "October in the North (Mountain Porn)"A summer and fall full of fieldwork has left me well behind on blog posts and photography, but as we pass into the New Year it seems fitting to push the old out and make room for the new. These posts will be photo-heavy and hopefully be easy to look at with weary eyes after what I’m sure was fantastic and exhausting holiday season. Enjoy!
A couple of weeks ago, I got together with some friends and went for an adventure in the forest. Then I took some pictures… Fully “loaded” Volvo… Jules getting posey Scot comtemplates the waterfall Alan is vewwy vewwy sneaky… Al, Jules Phil and Scot are here to keep you safe in the woods. Cheers!
Read more "Forest Adventures with Friends"Early this Fall, the always-adorable Miss Caroline Wells moved for school out to the far coast of our fair country. Before she left, we managed to sneak in a quick little trip to Carmanah Provincial Park and Ukee on the extreme west coast of Vancouver Island. Later, I went to join up with her in […]
