Aside from a couple of early snowfalls that lingered a tad, autumn in the East Kootenay 2019 was quite lovely – especially if you enjoy powering right up to the solstice without much snow on the ground!

We were lucky this past fall in that when we managed to get out and about in the region we were blessed with some Grade A days and delicious lighting.

The following video collection showcases images from throughout the East Kootenay, including – in order of appearance: Bighorn sheep in Radium Hot Springs; Brisco and area; Bull River area; Bummer Flats/Kootenay River; Columbia Valley; Cranbrook and area; Dutch Creek Hoodoos; Edgewater; Elk Valley/River; Fairmont Hot Springs; Fernie and area; Kootenay National Park; Horseshoe Lake; Invermere; Kimberley and area; Kootenay Pass; ?aqam (Mission Road); Radium Hot Springs; Spillimacheen and area; Spur Valley/Luxor Creek.
