Tim Jones Peak, 23 Jan 2021

24 Jan 20214 Feb 2021 ~ AndyG ~ 4 Comments

Opinion With the most time above the trees, Mount Seymour is simply the best of the North Shore mountains in winter, especially on a bluebird day like today. The price is, of course, popularity so getting a parking spot requires a very early start, and when the conditions are right, venturing beyond Pump Peak to … Continue reading Tim Jones Peak, 23 Jan 2021

Mount Seymour (First Peak), 28 Nov 2020

29 Nov 2020 ~ AndyG ~ Leave a comment

Opinion With its true subalpine feel Mount Seymour remains my favourite North Shore peak, and watching a winter sunset from First Peak is a wonderful spectacle. It's busy, though, so don't expect solitude, and it will soon be even busier. Fact The ski resort was not yet open, so finding a parking spot was much … Continue reading Mount Seymour (First Peak), 28 Nov 2020

Mount Seymour, 4 Nov 2018

10 Dec 2018 ~ AndyG ~ 2 Comments

Opinion Always a fine destination for a short-ish hike, the first peak of Mount Seymour is one of my favourite North Shore summits. It's a great shoulder-season hike now all the bugs have gone, but it's not a place to expect solitude, even at this time of year. Fact We went as far as the … Continue reading Mount Seymour, 4 Nov 2018

Opinion: What? Mt Seymour again? Well, this time we had to do battle with the hordes and barely succeeded - we got one of the last spots in the overnight parking lot (P5). Was it worth it? Overall, yes though perhaps not for everyone. Having to park nearly 2 km from the trailhead seems like … Continue reading Mount Seymour (First Peak), 15 Jan 2017

Mount Seymour (First Peak), 12 Jan 2017

Opinion: Having done Black Mountain last week, I can honestly say that Mount Seymour was miles better. On a bluebird day such as this, the views were many and pretty much ever-present. Light winds, friendly faces, and a quiet mid-week trail added up to a superb day out. Fact The trail was well established and … Continue reading Mount Seymour (First Peak), 12 Jan 2017

Mount Seymour (Second Peak), 8 Dec 2007

Mount Seymour take two... With a fine forecast and no recent snow, there would be no problems getting up the mountain this week! Eight of us met at the usual place and set off for a fun day in the snow. The parking lot was mostly clear (just a few patches of ice here and … Continue reading Mount Seymour (Second Peak), 8 Dec 2007

There's a little patch of chocolate lilies that grows in a very popular park near Vancouver, just far enough away from the beach for most visitors to never know they were there...
Brockton Point is a nice little after-work destination at this time of year. It doesn't usually feel like winter though... It was very cold and the snow was soft - warm layers and snowshoes definitely needed off-trail (even ailing ones like mine, which broke again).
The one and only Mount Assiniboine, looking quite majestic in its snowy coat.
You could say I'm very fawn'd of these lilies... #ErythroniumOregonum #WhiteFawnLily #LighthousePark
Magnificent, majestic Mamquam Mountain
A successful search for blue (king) gentian, and the last blooms of the season.
