First Snow on "The Lions"

"The Lions" are two peaks of ca. 1600m height and a prominent landmark of Vancouver. They used to be called "The Sisters" and had great spiritual value to the indigenous people. The name was changed in 1890 due to the peaks' resemblance to sleeping lions.
The sun last weekend revealed that it had been snowing on the mountains while it rained in town. It looks glorious up there, but the peaks are not skiable.
Taken from the parking lot of my local shopping mall, just 5 min. away.
