Up ‘N Down the Ski Hill
This will be my final post on the incredible hike up and down North Star Mountain, aka Kimberley Alpine resort mountain. It was certainly one of the most memorable hikes of the Summer. In fact it was my

Five Hour & Five Hundred metre Limit
Making our way down the side of North Star Mountain here at the Kimberley resort area; look at all the snow on that mountain over yonder! I heard there is a gnarly hike that takes you to the top of that

Numa Falls
This is one of my favourite falls, located somewhere between Radium, British Columbia and Castle Junction, Banff Park. Just off the highway is the parking lot, then a two minute walk to these awesome falls!

Non-Snowy Season
You may think that these photos are missing one main element — snow. That is true in the Summertime obviously. I declare that there may be more fun to be had in the non-snowy season than the snowy season!

Kimberley “Ski” Resort
Have you ever skied at Kimberley Alpine resort in British Columbia? Well me neither, but I hiked to the top last June! Most go to a ski resort in the Winter because why wouldn’t you right? Me, I’d rather

Mossy Trees
We found some interesting “mossy” trees on our hike up Mother’s Day hill. Very unique actually, something you don’t often come across. Perhaps it is a form of lichen? I certainly am no expert on the matter,

Obstacles and Goals
