Snow at 1100 Metres

After a week of stormy weather, there is now snow at the 1100 m. level - the elevation of Paradise Meadows & the Wilderness Centre.

Many years ago, Len Rossiter, one of the early explorers of the Forbidden Plateau area, said there are four seasons on the Plateau - July, August, September & winter!

Over the winter I plan to investigate some of the history of this area of Strathcona Park, and will be posting some of the interesting stories regularly on the blog.
