It’s Friday, October 2nd. Another Random Friday. Tell me if you have any Big plans for this weekend? How was your week, anything exciting happen? Myself, it's back to work after a week of holidays spent

We finally made it to the top of North Star Mountain, also known as Kimberley Alpine ski resort. The “final stretch” of the hike took us to the club house, where we sat down and had a light lunch. For

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!

A few more captures, as we made our way up North Star Mountain at Kimberley Alpine resort, East Kootenay, British Columbia . I originally thought it was called Kimberley mountain, but digging deeper, the

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

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,

I guess I missed “Random Friday” by a day. So we’ll call it Random Saturday this time. What did you get up to this week? Anything special or fun? I just got back from British Columbia tonight, did four

Today the plan was to do something easier than yesterday's hike to Fairy Falls. Moyie Falls is located about 20 minutes west of Cranbrook, British Columbia. In order to get there one must use a gravel

Here is a video of today's epic hike to Fairy Falls, Fernie, British Columbia. The trailhead was conveniently located beside the visitor centre in Fernie. It took only about forty five minutes to hike

This is Fisher Peak, as seen from the top of Mother’s Day Hill. Mount Fisher is one of the toughest mountains to climb in the East Kootenay vicinity, rated as a “difficult” hike. The mountain is approximately

Here we are on top of the world! Or at least on top of Mother’s Day hill, East Kootenay, British Columbia. It took approximately an hour and a half or so to hike up to this lookout point. The river flowing

Have you ever hiked a mountainous ridgeline? This was my first time up so high, and it was so incredible! In all honesty, this was not planned in advance. We were going hiking as a group and I was along

A couple more photos from our Mother’s Day hiking camera roll. Sometimes the trail can be blocked with obstacles, kinda like life. Obstacles are there to overcome! Completing hikes is like completing goals

Here we are on the “Mother’s day” hiking trail, a relatively short and sweet easy hike. Typically when on the trail I’ll come across sometime that is “Eye Catching”. For example in the first photo I

It’s Friday, September 18th and we are just four days away from the official start of Fall! Summer is pretty much wrapped and in the bag now. Arguably, Fall is my favourite season of the bunch. The leaves

We didn’t actually go for a hike on Mother’s Day, however the hike itself is called Mother’s Day trail. The reason for the name is for the plethora of wildflowers to been seen in May and early June. We

As we walk through the forest, here in Cranbrook, British Columbia, careful not to step on one of these giant fallen acorns! As cool as they may be, you don’t want to twist your ankle. Anyways, it is only

Let’s take a walk through the Community Forest, here in Cranbrook, British Columbia (or should I say a “Meander” through the forest). What a great thing to have, a nice forest with winding trails on the

This will be my final post on the incredible Lake Louise, one of Canada’s most famous lakes and ski resorts. Winter, Summer, Spring or Fall, this is a place that never disappoints. Just behind the Fairmont

Looking out at Lake Louise it was still in an unfrozen state, but just to our right side was a completely frozen waterfall! How does that happen you might ask? Well I’m no scientist, but obviously a larger
