Rose Gold on the Peaks

The last low sun turns the snow on the North Shore mountains to rose gold, while the water below the Lions Gate Bridge keeps the cool blue of evening.

Above the Stanley Park Causeway, just south of the bridge (about 140 m up)

Just south of the bridge, above the Stanley Park Causeway, the road that carries traffic through the park to the bridge's south end, the view looks north-north-east. The two towers stand on either side of the First Narrows, and beyond the shore the snow-covered North Shore mountains catch the last light of the day. At the south approach stand two concrete lions by the sculptor Charles Marega. They were set in place in January 1939, about two months after the bridge opened, and were the last work of his career.
