In Revelstoke

Revelstoke, B.C., is entirely surrounded by mountains except for a couple of passes. It’s an inland rain forest, humid in summer and snowy in winter. They had at least 12 feet (3.5 m) of snow this year. There’s still snow in drifts here and there, waterfalls coming off the mountain, and stretches of road marked “Avalanche Area: do not stop.” The mountains are amazing and beautiful - sometimes like solid clouds, sometimes hidden in fog, sometimes monumental and brooding.
