Winter is yet to come to Northern BC apparently. In contrast it’s forecast to be 38 deg C (100 F) this Friday at our property in the Wollombi Valley, Australia. Some letters home from another world. Wells, British Columbia, Canada.
Perfectly still on the lake yesterday evening creating a mirror like reflection. If you have a look in high resolution you can see the Autumn leaves in the foreground through the clear water. Ness Lake, British Columbia, Canada.
Foreboding clouds roll across Medicine Lake while it sits in winter hibernation. While the Maligne River pours into the lake from the south, the lake is actually a geological anomaly as there is no visible exit to the lake. The water however drains out through a cave system formed in the slightly soluble limestone rock. It does not surface again for 16km where Maligne Canyon improbably cuts its way out of the ground. The sinking river system is thought to be one of the largest inaccessible cave systems anywhere in the world. Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada
