Domestic Day
Credits first: thanks to Chris Cowan for this photo from yesterday – struggling (um – hiking) up Mount Elgood. Good thing I’m still smiling. Today – a rest at-home day before going out tomorrow with Tammy and Cecilia to tackle … Continue reading

Elgood/Plewman/Lepsoe
It was me and the boyz: 4 of us headed up Elgood – that was just for starters. Clearly I had forgotten how steep Elgood is. It kind of lulls you into a false sense of security at the start … Continue reading

Spring
Spring is subtle here – at least now, a couple of days before April. Simon and I took the dogs for a walk on the rail trail around Lemon Creek. The snow was gone in the places that got full … Continue reading

Extreme Snowshoeing
Yup – Ben, Cecilia and I put a new twist on “extreme snowshoeing” today. I blame it all on Ben – because, of course, I blame everything on Ben. Now is not the time to change that. We started off … Continue reading

Lightning Strike (once Again)
Today we had an excellent group – six of us drove to Kootenay Pass and snowshoed up Lightning Strike, taking the “new” way that Ben and I did a few days ago. We had gorgeous weather and snow that was, … Continue reading

Cars
Yesterday: the alpine. Today – roads. We travelled twice back and forth to Three Forks, the good news being that this last time, I picked up the car with its new summer tires. Simon says I was crazy lucky because … Continue reading
