Hey everyone, quick little blog here. Went out for a rip this morning through central Alberta, the Eckville/Medicine Valley area to be exact, and what I was treated to was a winter wonderland.
Days of fog had left almost every structure, tree, shrub, fence and even powerline covered in a cake icing-like cocoon. Rime ice has taken over! It was stunning to see in person and I hope these pictures show how beautifully encased the countryside has become.
As i wake up now adays, to screaming children more often than an alarm clock, I have come to charish a few things. My morning single cup, brewed coffee, a strole through my Twitter feed and an almost always beautiful sunrise.
For two weeks now, most Albertans have been treated to warm Pacific air, as chinook winds funnel warmth over the Rockies. Cloud decks and chinook arches are left to be kissed by the sun every morning, projecting reds, oranges, yellows and pinks across the sky.
Heres what I saw this morning near Condor, Alberta.
