We have 20 acres just outside Vernon and have some great views of the local mountains, nothing like the Rockies though. That railroad trip is definitely a great experience with some awesome views.
Here is a picture from our deck in winter.

snow? was that pic taken during winter or is it that cold there all the time?
That was the dead of winter....it actually is very nice during the summer, although this year the rain seems to be the dominant feature. It's supposed to be clear and 32 all next week (Celsius :D) It's a pretty normal temperate zone here, 50* LAT, 30's during the summer, hangs around 0 to -10C during the winter, some days get to -20C, around 4-6' of snow annually, very easy to enjoy all year around.
Summertime picture attached. Future hop yard (picture 2014, hops now growing great. :2tsup:)
