06548 Black Tusk & Garibaldi Lake Aerial - 1977

            I could not resist uploading one more photo from Garibaldi Park, made from a small plane during a flyover one beautiful winter morning in January. You can clearly see the ancient lava flow that dammed an outflow creek and created Garibaldi Lake (seen in the upper right of the view from Black Tusk posted two days ago). In the distance, the great valley through which winds Highway 99 from Vancouver to Whistler.

The pilot was my ex-girlfriend's brother-in-law, 21. I was 28 at the time and invulnerable. No fear; I was awestruck. For those of you who know the Lower Mainland of British Columbia, we met at the airport in Abbotsford, flew to Vancouver, circled the city, buzzed Stanley Park, and then continued up Howe Sound to Garibaldi. A spectacular day. I think we were in the air less than two hours. It gave me a very different sense of the place that by then I thought I knew.
