More great photos from that area again, Chris :thumbup: Glad the wolves didn't take a fancy to you :lol:

The "holiday" you've described for "soapy27" was pretty much everything that we did back in 1993 :roll: :D

Thanks Susie, that's certainly the best circuit for a 'one off' visit to the Rockies, but I think after all that typing soapy has missed the post :roll:..... :lol:

Cheers JK, winter is great here until the sun goes down...then it really is biting :shock: but as you say the wolves made it all good (I tried it with a Coyote outside my house today.....he ran off) :lol: :lol:
