After a few times of waking up at 3 am, to be able to arrive at the famous Abraham Lake for sunrise, we got smart. We decided to find a hotel as close to the lake as possible and stay overnight. That's what we did.

This arrangement has a lot of pluses, like being able to bounce ideas off each other, or being able to just go shoot northern lights, at the spur of the moment at 2 am in the morning.
