Blue Mountain Railway Trail​

Picture
The Blue Mountain trail (the junction of Dewdney Trunk Road and 272nd) was the main spur line of the world's largest logging railway system in its day. This narrow-gauge railway system started at Whonnock Lake (Camp No.2) and then disappeared into the mountains to the north and beyond.
I was walking a neighbour's dog up Blue Mountain when I came across this location. I instantly knew there was a painting hiding here, I just had to capture the best angle. The lighting was perfect. It was a hot day but the shade provided by the trees made the air cool and pleasant.
To the left of the painting, behind the trees, is Kanaka Creek, which flows parallel to the trail for a short distance before branching its way up the mountain.

Painting Specifications:
  Medium:
Acrylic paint & black ink
  Size: 11w x 14h-inches
