Today we headed off to Kootenay Pass to go up Wolf Peak. It was a glorious day and one of the prettiest places I’ve been to yet! I made a promise to myself – lots more exploring to do here. Lots.

That said, we have no idea where we went – which might be why we need to explore here a lot more.

We were aiming for Wolf Peak but, of course, followed a ski track up. So much easier than breaking trail. Besides the track went in exactly the right direction. Near the top (of something) the trail split. We took the one that appeared to go higher. And then – there we were on the top – of something – with views to die for.

Max checked his GPS and told us we were actually almost 100 metres higher than Wolf Peak – which was somewhere nearby.

Hey – it was 12.30 and lunch time and we were in a place so sunny and warm we actually de-layered and Max took of his shirt to soak up the rays.

A perfect day – and now we have lots of reasons to go back. There’s Wolf Peak to summit and a high ridge to explore.

Yay!
