July 2014- Sulpher Skyline and Opal Hills

Forgot to post this earlier- we took the trailer to Pocahontas campground in Jasper for two nights.  

The day we arrived we did good old Sulpher Skyline and finished up at  Miette hot springs.

The next day, overcast and cool, we did the incomparable Opal Hills trail.

 

We had a buddy ahead of us on the trail for the last klick.  See him in the picture above?

Kananaskis & Banff May-June 2014

Ken had a Board Basics workshop in Turner Valley so we went together.  Stayed the first night in Bragg Creek after doing the old Elbow Falls hike.

The Powderface Trail road was closed so we drove highway 1 to the hostel at kananaskis. Did Troll Falls (?) and had nachos at the pub

Then drove the Spray Lakes forestry road to Canmore.

Had dinner with Chris n Christie n his sis in Banff then walked around beautiful Two Jack Lake (beside Lake Minnewanka)

It was Sunday morning and I felt like I was in church.

One day at Coliseum Mountain

We took Friday off to go on a long camping weekend but it poured  rain all day.  Saturday we decided to try a one day trip to nordegg.  We left about 10:30 am and got to coliseum mountain about 1:30 pm.
