We had a windstorm blow through the area (as windstorms do) on the night of November 10th, a few days ago as I write this.
I went birding the next day and captured a few shots of the destruction while walking down the Brunette River trail.
First, the pretty. The wind yoinked a bunch of leaves off the trees, making the trail resplendent in fall colours:
And the destruction. This was the largest piece of debris on the river trail I saw, and definitely not something you would want clobbering you on the head at 70-90 km/h:
This rare non-run day shot from the top of the Cariboo Dam shows that the morning after the storm was actually pretty decent:
