Got to love Christmas day - it's the first time in ages I've had the time to sit down and look at one of your reports properly! A bit of a high to see out the year by the looks of things . Rather cold but amazing photos as ever .

Cheers Malky, this was a nice close out to the year, I hardly remember the temperature now... sitting here in Florida looking out at the beach with far too much turkey consumed

Cheers Quoman, I really enjoyed this one...the first real walk of winter I think

[BlackPanther]

And that's how Christmas weather should look like! Did Rudolf the Red Nose wander about by any chance?
Fantastic as always. We didn't have much of winter this year, a bit of frost here in there, but generally just WET-WET-WET... And gale force winds predicted for the next weekend All right, all right, I know, it's typical for Scotland

Happy New Year and more great Canadian adventures in 2013!

Great photos and report,makes me want to get my boots on and head to Canada

[Tomsie]

Great photo's, while reading this was thinking about dangers of bears what are precautions you take incase of meeting them

Thanks BP, no sign of Rudolf but Chris the red nose hiker was in plentiful supply Happy new year to you too, have a great year and may 2013 bring some better weather

Great photos and report,makes me want to get my boots on and head to Canada

Thanks Peter, its definitely worth the visit if the temperatures don't put you off

Great photo's, while reading this was thinking about dangers of bears what are precautions you take incase of meeting them

Cheers Tomsie, I always carry bear spray, bear bangers and flares but rarely need them (particularly now they are in hibernation) but then there's always the mountain lions and wolves Only needed to fire off a banger once earlier this year, usually the bears are pretty well behaved

Thanks for a wonderful set of pictures and a great report. Looking forward to some more in the New Year All the best Chris from Sunny York....( Not really)

Cheers LH, York is beautiful in the snow.....not so much in the rain though Happy New Year mate, wishing you good weather and good legs to enjoy it for 2013

Another classic ChrisW report and pictures from Canada Looks so much better than the wind and rain we're enjoying here in Scotland just now Looking forward to more Canadian adventures in 2013

[SusieThePensioner]

A wonderful walk to finish the year off Such fantastic photos as well, as usual, Chris
It's an amazing walk up to the tearoom; even in July when we went there several years ago

I hope you've had a great Christmas in the HOT SUN And a Happy New Year to you and your family.

So looking forward to more of the same from you in 2013; well, not anymore falls or close encounters of the bear kind
