Fall colors in British Columbia, can be hard to find. A large portion of the Province is covered in evergreen trees that never change color. But one you locate the deciduous trees, its as if a whole new world has opened up. My images below are taking mainly around Vancouver Island. A local favorite is the Japanese Garden at Butchart Gardens. Also, if you’re in town, check out Hatley Castle and Gardens, UVIC Finnerty Gardens, and Mystic Vale.

A few images are from a photo and hiking trip we took at the end of September to Kananaskis Country in Alberta to participate in larch madness. The journey to view the larch trees as their needles turned yellow did not disappoint. The hikes to get up into the alpine to view the best specimens were difficult due to the altitude. If you’re planning on viewing them next year, let me know, I have a list of hikes and can provide you with some guidance.
