Hike up them socks




Ah. Mosquitoes!!!










My spare time has been well spent as of lately. Today I completed my 4th hike of the season. While that is a much further behind than last year, I am satisfied with it.  Hiking is easily one of my favourite pass times and other than friends and family, the mountains were what I yearned for most.

This has happened twice in the past week.
What is it about the mountains that make them so intoxicating? I could begin to describe the crisp breath of alpine fresh air. Or the awe of windswept rock faces, the magnificent blues and greens of recently thawed glacier that develops into a mountain lake. However as amazing as I would like to describe the background of the Canadian Rockies, I feel that my vocabulary cannot entirely justify its awesomeness.  With that said here are a few pictures of recent hikes. 

Lastly, just in case you thought you could get away with it; Kelly…Emma here are a few recent videos I snapped of efforts to cross a few creeks.
