People die for lots of reasons all the time. Random photographers are supposed to know the entire list, by name? Mind your own business.

Idk, winter hikes are probably my favourite. I've climbed mountains in -50 in the Arctic, although on second thoughts I might be a bit nuts, yes

It's not going to be an enjoyable hike, at any rate.
I wouldn't spend money (I wouldn't do it for free, either, even if it's literally outside the house) to hike through foggy woods and slippery meadows and get possibly lost in the process, but you do you, I guess?

Although this picture is quite "honest" when it comes to northern lights (at least to my experience watchin and photographing them, and compared to other stuff that is posted sometimes), an event this strong is the type of thing that only happens a few times a year, so you need to be lucky to see it during a travel... And you may still have a cloudy day to mess up your plans

> it's nowhere near warm enough to put on a mac and hike anyway
Baffled by this comment lol. Of course you can just bring suitable clothes...

Is this Peyto Lake?

No one leaves the lower parking area at Peyto. Even this view can be improved upon with some more huffing and puffing up the steep but safe slope it's on. (Not to be done in snow, however as there may be an avalanche risk.)

It's great, but it's also so mentally exhausting. I'll probably get back to it at some point, but the chapter with the grizzly dragged on for so long.

While it's not perfect, Calgary (nearest city) has been consistently rated as one of the best liveable cities in the world.

Total solar eclipse coming up across North America in '24. You have to go to totality, I swear 99.9% is nothing like 100%

I mean I bet there was no one else there that day but I went in July peak tourist season and have a photo of this same view without a single tourist in it taken in the middle of the day.

To each their own, my friend. If the atmosphere is all that interests you, by all means just watch it on YouTube. Pay no mind to the gatekeepers.

You're not wrong, winter hikes here are great! They're a lot better than late autumn outings - it's a lot drier and there's little chance of rain. Late autumn hikes tend to leave one very soggy.
But hey, dedicated hikers will find something to like in the late autumn muddy slogs too, I guess. :D
