As promised, this weeks photo was taken far from Iona Island. This weekend Sara and I took a camping trip up to Sasquatch Provincial Park near Harrison Hot Springs to take in the local Sasquatch festival. I took this photo at Hicks Lake near the mouth of the tiny outlet creek that drains the lake. There are usually a resident pair of Dippers at the outlet but these dippers were especially cooperative.
