This is great, too bad the Photo Comp is over for this year.

Sure beats the traditional boring old TR's.

Keep 'em coming!

A further installment from last weekend… a friend who hasn't been on his skis in 2 years joined us so we elected to hit someplace with simple terrain that was easy to bail on if blisters and/or gear exploded – AKA: Bow Summit.  

Luckily, he had an awesome day so we pretty much hammered the place!

So there – now yer all caught up!

And the season just keeps going on!  

With the return of sun and some warmth here in Calgary, I'm thinking I might take next weekend off to catch up on the Fall yardwork that never got done

Well, we managed to pull off our annual "Ski to Sea" weekend with a quick visit to the Highwood Pass, followed by a paddle on the Upper Kananaskis Lake.

It made for a fairly gear intensive weekend.  I'm sure our neighbours thought we were insane when we loaded up in town - not that there's anything unusual about that.  

Lots of snow right down to the side of the road..

although a bit thinner than I expected in spots.  

Still, I can't believe this is almost the first day of "summer"!  

Alpine flowers will be a long time in coming yet.

Turns?  Meh, we got 'em and they were fun but it started to drizzle pretty hard and we were happy to bail for Phase 2 of the plan...

Again with the gear transition...

With a nice roll down to the lake - love the Wheeleze!

Nice to get the tippy greenlander out

A couple weeks ago this was all under ice and the water still felt like it.  Brrr!  Not a day I felt like getting much rolling practice in!

Still, looking around I wonder which season we're really in?!

Anyway, I'm hoping some warm weather will eventually prevail but otherwise I hesitate to say that this will be "it" for our season.  Seems every time I say that it snows some more... 

To be continued
