I was having my weekly morning walk with my friends yesterday morning and we noticed that the snow on top of the mountains were melting away. Then the discussion went to "next week it was suppose to get as warm as the low 20 C's". Winter had been officially over for quite some time, since all the cherry blossoms in the city had already bloomed then fell, and it made me want to make one more post about winter. So this week, we head to Alexander Falls, which is located in Callaghan Country, near Whistler, BC. The area is managed by Callaghan Country, so we had to pay a fee to gain access to the area. The trail is an easy 2.4km out and back trail with minimal elevation gain. We went there in the middle of winter in January 2022 and took our time to hike to the falls. Due to the location of the hike, which is quite up north, there was a lot of snowfall. It was also snowing on the day we went. Gladly, the falls was not located at high elevations, so the clouds did not obstruct the views of the falls. As well, due to it being the middle of winter, most of the falls and the river / creek flowing from it were frozen, so we were able to see it from up close. It was a nice winter walk in the snow.

Alexander Falls mostly frozen in winter, but there was still a little bit of water flowing in the middle of the frozen falls.

Little one came off the carrier for a walk on our way back.
