Featured photograph: snowy mountain hike

It’s that time of year in Vancouver when we’re all longing for the rain and mist to lift so we can see the beautiful, snowy North Shore mountains. While we wait, you can gaze upon this photograph instead:

In this turn-of-the-century photo, a group of unidentified hikers enjoys a snowy hike on a mountain. How do we know it’s a mountain? There are a number of photographs in the collection (found in Box 55) of the same group showing them ascending the mountain on their hike. There unfortunately is not any accompanying information with the photographs, so we do not know the exact location- but they could very well be on the North Shore given the scenery.

To see all the photos of these folks, a keyword search for “men and women on a mountain” will find them all. To find more photos of mountains, search for the keyword “mountain” with “photographic material” as the type.
