A few years ago, we backpacked to Garibaldi Lake, camping at the Battleship Islands campground and hiking the trails above the meadows.   We took a number of photos along the way.   Near our campsite, the view was spectacular.  

Hiking with an artist is a different experience.  David Langevin is a well-know painter who lives in Kamloops.   From the same view, this is the painting he produced from that day:

This is always amazing to me that something so special can be created from the fleeting views on a hike. To see more of David's paintings, go to his website:
