I got the good first run up the mountain this morning. This time with better light.

Where? Reminds me of Western NC, like the Mt Mitchell area. I might also guess New England, but I’d expect fewer deciduous leaves by now...
EDIT: I see from your other posts it’s probably in Canada. The leaves haven’t all dropped yet?

First guess was right! Mount Seymour, just outside Vancouver. Not at all actually, the trees aren't usually bare until late November I think

Hehe...read it again — western NC, not western BC. The landscapes are oddly similar, plus lots of clouds/fog most of the time.
Here’s Mt Mitchell, NC (highest point in the eastern US, which gives it similar vegetation to more northern climates):

Yep — there are even small sections of Eastern Tennessee that are considered Temperate Rain Forests (very similar to northern Maritime areas) due to microclimates with such high rainfall.
Some of the sections that weren’t clearcut by loggers in the 1800s-early 1900s have more biodiversity in one acre than the entire European continent combined.
I love funfacts. Some of those coves in the Smoky Mountains are like stepping onto another planet compared to their surroundings.
