Fortunate to hike through a field of poppies in bloom. Highlight of my exceptionally tough day on the "no" trail! Rouse Hill April 29, 2026

Snow hike #2 March 22, 25 Ha Ling Peak Bow Valley Provincial Park - Kananaskis Sometimes when I visit Calgary on a work trip, I am fortunate to be able to add a day for adventure. This day I was extremely lucky to have the time and ability to hike to the summit of Ha Ling Peak, in the snow, elevation a bit over 8000'. The day started beautifully. Later a storm did move in, and the temp dropped some 25°, and I was in snow for a while. I loved every minute! Tho I'm still dealing with some frostbite in my right middle finger.... Someday I hope to hike the 3 sisters too in the far background. The near peak is Lawrence Grassi.

Winter Hike #1 Pacifico A hike I do at least once a year, in winter. Because if you know where to look, you can see Mt. Langley and Mt. Whitney in the far distance. And because the summit is gorgeous. Grateful I was able to get a few snow hikes in.
