I went up Wedgemount last Sunday... it was a completely perfect day.

We stopped in to see Calida while we were in Campbell River.

Quadra - Breton Islands

While my parents were here, we visited with their friends on Quadra Island. I borrowed one of their Kayaks and went for a little paddle.

Everywhere I looked.... Starfish!


The Breton Islands

Murrin

This is Seamus. His mom, Cindy, is one of my favourite ladies.... She's also an amazing climber

Seamus is almost 3 and he just got his first harness.

1000 Islands

I was back East in July for a good friends wedding and enjoyed a great visit at home. Jasper is the newest addition to the family... he's pretty much the man!

Ivy Lea bridge to NY - right by my parents house.

Millenium Park

Yoho

Kara and I spent a very extended weekend in Yoho near Field, BC. We hiked a bunch.... and managed to fit in an epic (mis)adventure as well as a visit with friends in Golden and a side trip to Lake Louise.

Takkakaw Falls - we camped right by the river at the base of these falls.... and had amazing weather every day.

Kicking Horse

Lake O'hara - getting here was easy.... our alternate trail down turned into a bit of work... but it was super fun nonetheless.

Moraine Lake - we had a nice rest day in the Lake and had breakfast at Laggan's and toured around...

This ones not very clear, but this was on our descent along Cataract Creek
