Nuk Tessli, situated in the eastern foothills of the Coast Mountains, is a place of many moods: bright sun, pending storms, starlit nights, and exuberant winds. Here on the shores of Moonlight Lake, we could sense a storm brewing but we had no idea what nature had in store for us that night. We just […]

The Story Behind the Image
How Ancient is this Piece of Wood? I was exploring a new Canadian landscape at the foothills of the Coast Mountains; one which was being revealed for the very first time by the retreating Fyles Glacier. As I roamed with my camera, marveling at new soils and first generation vegetation, I came across this small […]

Glaciers hold a special place for me.

What is Happening Here?
“The job of the artist is always to deepen the mystery.” – Francis Bacon As I hike and explore the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast region of British Columbia, I am always reminded that life is rich, because there are many more questions than there are answers.
At Home in the Mountains
I guess I should be thinking about x-c skiing but when I see an image like this I just want to be out there! On a canoe/hiking expedition this past summer, this was our camp view overlooking Ape Lake in the Coast Mountains. We hiked, canoed, and explored the surrounding glaciers for several days. We […]
