Ribbon Lake | ↻ 2 years
The footage is not spectacular but in the moment I was more concerned with safety. We were 12km into the backcountry here, camping for 3 nights and this was a few minutes from camp. This black #bear had been hanging around and even came into camp once while we were there. A little surreal. #hike #wildlife

8r4d We saw so much #wildlife on our #hike it almost got a little too much. Up close and personal with a bunch of small critters was fine, but we did encounter a bear on the trail at a distance of less than 25m and had to use our bear smarts to deal with that.

Guinn’s Pass | ↻ 2 years
8r4d Day two recap, part 2. A long day #hike up the pass and onto the peak was a preview for our way home a few days later. It was a slog up to the top of the pass but the views were fantastic.

8r4d Day one recap, part 2. The headwall involved free climbing with our heavy packs up a cliff face with rebar ladder rungs stuck in the rock. #hike

8r4d The worlds largest game store? We may have spent some money and bought a new #boardgame this evening.

Calgary Farmers Market | ↻ 2 years
8r4d Staging up for our hike and warming up the legs by walking around the market pondering all the #food that’s way too heavy to carry up a mountain.

Heritage Festival | ↻ 2 years
8r4d Disaster! So the third day of the #heritagefestival ended up cancelled because a storm hit the site Sunday night and wrecked enough infrastructure—water, power, tents—that it was unsafe for the public. The city was in shock. This rarely happens. In fact I don’t ever remember a cancellation (except during the pandemic.) It was waiting on pins and needles all day to find out how we fared. But alas our crew finally got access late afternoon and tho the damage was minimal on our site, we still had our work cut out cleaning and tearing down the kitchen to wrap up for another year. #volunteering
