I recently got back to the NWT for my last two week rotation. I left Vancouver and my summer in the city has ended too; I'm going to Peru the day after I'm done at Snap Lake, not to return to the northern hemisphere until the first day of school.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time this summer in Vancouver. It was full of scrambling and buildering and getting to know all my Varsity Outdoor Club friends much better. School has the unpleasant affect of driving people (me especially) into hiding, and I've never had the spare time to get to know a lot of my comrades as well as I could have.
These last two weeks I had 3 great photographic adventures since the Garibaldi Castle Towers. The first was Boris' last buildering night before embarking on a perilious journey to that other territory, the West-North-West Territory, also known as Yukon. The second photographic experience was my first midnight mass bicycling adventure. The third and most successful photographic adventure was scrambling Ossa Mountain near Squamish. You may also click the thumbnail above for the Ossa Mountain photo set. I hope you enjoy them as much as I risked my life to take them.
(When viewing my flickr photos, avoid the slideshow because you miss important comments and notes. Instead, use the "photostream" to click through the photos one by one).
I'll end this post with a tip: Be very careful when buying Sandisk SD cards. There are manufacturers making factory sealed cards that are identical to real Sandisk cards, packaging and all, but that are worthless and complete garbage. Call Sandisk and describe how the back of the SD card looks and they'll be able to tell you if it's a real card or not.
