Salt Spring Photographer John Cameron
Or on Salt Spring. And that’s not the Pacific. Nope, it’s about a 7500 km drive from Ganges.
Next stop Ireland. Do you know where this is?
(In the dark of a Salt Spring winter with our dollar down for the count, Salt Springers get to thinking about travel…in Canada. This is a good spot!)
First light breaks through morning fog on a Salt Spring Island mountain trail. Winter in the Gulf Islands…
A pair of Mallards.
5:00 p.m.
Early darkness, a frost-covered float, clouds and fog over the lake.
Lovely and calm. Anyone fancy a swim?
10:00 am, south of the Mount Erskine summit
Another day, another hike. This time on the Erskine Trails, with the marginally faithful Westie: Cameron.
The fog, frost and snow make it so quiet, peaceful and different from the usual view.
Caution required though as one step off that ledge takes you very quickly to forest floor many hundreds of feet below.
There are only so many mountains on a small island like Salt Spring. So it’s been mentioned and photographed before on this website. Quickly browse the other Erskine posts by typing erskine in the search box at the bottom of the website. Or, if you’re in a big hurry, just click here.
