Southern BC - Hiking the Dream(s) 5

After our Nelson and Rossland backcountry adventures, our legs needed some downtime. We headed towards Osoyoos where the wineries are a plenty and took part in some wine tasting and buying. The next day we headed to the Dominoon Astrophycial Radio Observatory - quite famous in the astrophysics circles.

The whole observatory. All of it searching for background radio waves that explain parts unknown of our universe.

The main building, and the first radio telescope built on the premises.
