Ski Dunnet
Some friends took me skiing yesterday. With little to no wind in the forecast, I was excited to get out and enjoy the day. Here is a little aerial video from our excursion down in Dunnet Regional Park near Avonlea. Continue reading Ski Dunnet
Comet Neowise with Aurora and Milky Way
After drinking too much coffee with my sister, and unable to sleep, I peeked out the door to see if the clouds had cleared at all to give me a shot at the recently discovered comet Neowise.

We were going to try backcountry camping for the first time – yes, pack all your gear out onto the bald prairie and spend the night. Continue reading Grasslands NP East Block
Night of Lightning
I rushed to Dunnet Park to catch the sunset on a huge supercell to the southeast. Although I was too late to get much of the sunset, the lightning turned into quite a show. The above video has 4 timelapses I from last night. Push the play button. When I began, there was a hint of a rainbow over the canola. It continued to intrigue … Continue reading Night of Lightning
