  Leisurely AT trip into Purple bowl -  beside Lake Louise with Clayton.  See Chic’s Ski Trails Book – Skied up to above Temple lodge(45 min).  Took Skoki summer trail which is 70m uphill from winter XC ski trail.  Follow trail for .4 km then took a cutline which goes up to right off the trail [...]

  Quick tele ski with Wietse into Chester. Went early to avoid crowds and to be back early. Lots of people – skiers, snowshoers, dogs and even hikers! (30 +).  Don’t understand how the snowshoe couples miss the snowshoe uptrack(sign) and the ski up track(sign) and end up in the middle of the ski down trail!  Both [...]

  Short hike/scramble in Oct.  Windy. Pictures here Kidd Lookout   Full screen slide is best.

Drove down to Waterton for a great bike and hike on the last warm day of the year with Dave Salahub and Brian and Elaine Hunter. Went up the well constructed hike trail versus Andrew’s scramble route as the scramble to scree ratio looked way too low.  Beautiful day – great views.  Nachos and beer at Twin [...]

Wietse and I went up the SouthWest shortcut route(Non Kane route) on Mount Redoubt on Sat.  Bob Spirko (and Marta) have a good writeup (see website/photo page tab at top) and pictures on the route and we were met on top of the mountain by a guy who did it by this route in 1996 [...]

Window , Allison and Turtle Well actually we(kevin, Wietse and I) only did Turtle as a consolation prize as unbelievably there was too much steep snow on the slopes below Window and some of us only had running shoes. Bring boots, axe and probably crampons if planning on Window in the next 2- 3 weeks. [...]

   Sunny day hike with the family.  Some beta shots of Victoria, North Victoria and Aberdeen.   Pictures at lake agnes  

Quick trip on Sunday for exercise with Kevin and Lars. A little over 2 hours up – 1.5 down. Some snow in trees and patches on Loder. Rest of mountains look very white. Drove down to Mt kidd and not much looks dry but lots of cars at Baldy and Wasootch peak. Nakiska runs still [...]

  Tromp up Sunshine ski out with Wietse. These are all Wietse’s pics – Thanks Went to right side of Wolverine chair and then up green run to top of Wawa chair.  Went out the backcountry gate and followed some old trail to ridge highpoint.  The good runs down the front looked thin so we went [...]

Quick afternoon 2-3 hours with my daughter.  Almost no water or else frozen so no harness needed. Scramble up some chains, cables(work gloves help) and walk some logs.  Fun litle trip in late fall with low water.
