I’m attending an ice climbing festival in 2 weeks.

There’s a high risk there will be no ice in a very reliable area. This may be the first year it happened.

The evidence is there that climate change is happening, now, and you can see it with your own eyes if you’re willing to look.

Not an ideal spot to camp last weekend, but I ran out of light and didn’t feel comfortable navigating the rest of my trip on unknown terrain in the dark.

I pitched my trusty @tarptent.bsky.social scarp1 near the trees to stop (maybe) sliding over the edge on the sloped ice overnight. Great sunrise!

A rare blue sky over Black Tusk last weekend in Garibaldi Provincial Park.

After a brutal 15km up some very steep icy mountains, the sun went down before I reached where I was expecting to arrive. However, the sunset (and sunrise) were incredible and makes it worth it.

Hockey at Garibaldi Lake.
It’s been an unusually (or perhaps it is usual now) warm winter, and Garibaldi Lake is not covered in snow.

A perfect opportunity for Canadians to play hockey! They hiked in 9km with their sticks and skates.

Black Tusk at Dawn.

There is a delightful amount of snow in the alpine so early in the season, I just had to get out and enjoy it!

Paige and Steph were invited by Lil'wat and N'Quatqua to see why the temporary park closure matters, not only to the First Nations but to the park itself. A beautiful story to read & witness on the last day of the fall closure.
For the last month, Joffre Lakes Park has been closed to the public, as Lil'wat and N'Quatqua members reconnect with their traditional territory. Here's what one of B.C.'s busiest parks looks like at rest. By @sevawood.bsky.social with photos by Paige Taylor White. thenarwhal.ca/joffre-lakes...

The fact that we are so late in the game that we are engineering artificial glaciers should scare the hell out of everyone.
The water supply for nearly 12 million people in central Chile depends on the annual melting of glaciers, now in decline.

A group of engineers is testing an unlikely idea: building the first "artificial glaciers" in the Americas to capture as much water as possible before it disappears.
Goodbye, glaciers. Hello, engineered ice cones?
Inspired by the “ice stupas” of the Indian Himalayas, these manmade structures retain meltwater in winter and slowly release it during the scorching summer months.

We are a small part of beautiful planet - let’s protect it.

Once the sun starts going down ideas for shots come fast and furious!

It’s incredible that these delicate alpine flowers grow in such a tough environment.

Thinking of my dad recently, I pulled up the GPS marker where I put his ashes on my phone while training to work. Travelling west, a little surreal to watch the KM’s count down, being that much closer.

Winter twilight.

Light from the fading sun created such an interesting light on the landscape, repainting it with hues of purple.

If only we could slow down and observe time the way a camera does.

That was unexpected.

I couldn’t see the Aurora with the naked eye, maybe a dim glow. The moon behind lighting the landscape up didn’t help!

A long exposure has no trouble capturing it though - compressing time into a single moment.

A kiss goodbye from Winter last weekend with some decent snow fall. Same peak, a month and a year apart.
