Canada

beyond the beaten path

Renowned worldwide for its vast, untouched landscape, its blend of cultures and multifaceted history, Canada is a land of vast natural beauty and rich cultural identity. Trying to distil the climate of Canada into an easy-to-understand statement is impossible,given the vast area and diverse geography within the country. Overall, in most places, winters are harsh compared to much of the world, on par with northern Eurasia. The most populated region, southern Ontario, has a less severe climate, similar to the bordering regions of the midwestern and northeastern United States. Iqaluit, the capital of Nunavut, is just south of the Arctic Circle and remains very cold except for the months of July and August, when the July average maximum is only 12°C (54°F). On the other hand, the coastlines of British Columbia are very mild for their latitude, remaining above freezing for most of winter, yet they are not far away from some of the largest mountain glaciers found on the continent.

Daniel Fox: Feel the WildNature is raw and rough. It is deadly, strong, destructive, and intimidating. It is also beautiful, relaxing, humbling, lifting, motivating and inspiring. Beyond this, Nature is resilient and a source of priceless teachings. It reminds us that life is not about us and that there is something far bigger than us.read more

I’ve been traveling to connect further with myself and nature for the past 2-3 years as a film maker and photographer.It has opened doors for me and expanded my horizons beyond measures. Travel has been a source of inspiration of ephemeral beauty I can capture and share with others. I have never done a group trip but have always desired to drive so. This sounds like an interesting opportunity to make it happen and share some experiences with my audience.
