What's been happening and what's coming up.

 2025-04-01 What's been happening and what's coming up.

Hey everyone. Here's an update as the some of the things that have happened and some of the plans for the next few months.

I recently had a few days exploring in the Nicola Valley region of British Columbia. I went to visit someone who lives off-grid in the general area of Merritt. Initially I had planned to get camp out quite high up and do some time lapse videos but the snowpack was more than I was comfortable driving through. Basically I went until I 'almost' got stuck, at which point I made the decision to just spend the night at my buddy's place. I didn't want to be forced into spending the night on the mountain and having to walk down to get help.

The next day he and I went exploring on a few Resource or Forest Service roads to see what all was there. Basically only turning around when we reached the end of the road or the snow was preventing us from going further. On the third day I returned home having had a great time with my buddy whom I hadn't spent a lot of time with in over a decade. I am working on putting some of the video and images up on YouTube. Look for it in a few days.

April is looking busy with a variety of things other than photography-videography. I do have a camping trip planned for the end of April with a group of friends so probably not a lot of picture taking on that trip. May and June are the months where I have significant photographic activity planned so we'll see what happens then.

In the mean time I hope you stay well and enjoy the outdoors.
