Glamping, beautiful BC style!


What a stellar weekend we had, camping out near Radium! The drive out was a mix of bizarre rain squalls and was filled with wildlife sightings (4 bears, 2 elk, numerous deer), and the landscape was so lush.... Some friends have a slice of paradise near Brisco which they graciously shared with about 16 of us, and a great time was had by all!







The view from camp!


Our lovely hostess Cara.




Preparing for the evening's game of giant jenga!





Beauty view of the Columbia River valley!






Guess we're not taking that road!





Very cool re-direct of the creek, for irrigation
purposes in the valley below.




This is the life!


As per usual, days off go by way too fast, however this week at work has gone by surprisingly quickly - tomorrow is already Thursday! Which is really like my Friday. 😊 Yippeee!!

Wherever you are in your schedule, enjoy!

Cheers.



A storm is rolling in - this was from back in May.

June already!!??


What better way to end off the month of May than by spending it in the mountains! The weather felt like full-tilt summer, hitting 27C on Saturday, so we did some pedaling and some creek-hopping, and enjoyed many hours out in the sunshine and fresh air.












For the most part, we were able to avoid the crowds, but it was way busier in Canmore than I ever would have anticipated! Luckily I still know a few secret (LOL!) trails, and surprisingly you don't have to venture very far to get away from the masses.












A few local riders put on a bit of a show at the BMX park, which was cool to watch...




And now it's Monday which means back to the grind, but we're also into June, which is going to be filled with even more most excellent outdoor pursuits. I have been looking forward to summer all winter, and it feels like it is finally here! Yay!

Cheers!
