Mount Maxwell Splendour

November 21, 2016

Mount Maxwell
A stunningly bright and contrasty November Day on Salt Spring Island.

Just don’t look at tomorrow’s forecast.

Low Cloud and Fog at Mount Maxwell

July 22, 2016

Low Cloud and Fog at Mount Maxwell
Grey where there should be ocean, mountains on Vancouver Island and blue sky.
And there will be when the grey burns off.

Speaking of grey, we’re off to the coast for a few days. Judging by the changing forecast, we’ll be in no danger of sunburns. Salt Spring Photos should be back on Tuesday afternoon; perhaps with a few grey photos.

Fog Monster devours Fulford

January 9, 2016

Fog Monster at Fulford

I watched as the fog rolled through the Fulford valley, rising up the hills and ‘disappearing the trees’.

Bonus: Yes there is still some snow and frost at the summit of Mount Maxwell:

Snow at Mount Maxwell

This is the Salt Spring Island equivalent of ‘Snow Pack’. Here today gone tomorrow. The good news however is that the Vancouver Island snow pack has rebounded to 100% of normal, half way through the snow season.

Fog Pillows

10:30 a.m. Mount Maxwell Lookout

Low cloud in Ganges, thick fog on lower Mount Maxwell but clear blue skies on top. There was a temperature inversion at the summit, rendering my winter clothes redundant. In this photo we’re looking northward across the giant fog pillows to Vancouver Island.
