Canada - Life on the edge with Stuart & Fi ***FIXED***

[ChrisW]

Sensational stuff, as usual, Chris, ably aided and abetted by the environment!! I'm going to have to give Canada a whirl sometime - my son is threatening to move there, so maybe fairly soon

Thanks for ***FIXING*** it. I was also one of the ones that also couldn't view the pics.

Thanks for trying again Alteknacker, getting the pics on has been a pain You should get yourself out here and sample it, there really is no substitute

Brilliant pics once again, looks like a fab day was had by all.

Cheers JK........They enjoyed most of it

Another great report and pics Chris worth waiting the six weeks mate That looks an awesome walk and ridge, great stuff only 2 of your photos won't open for me but well happy with what I've seen and the colours are exceptional

Thanks TM, google switch from picasa to google photos has blown it for me This time of year is our very best for colour. The angle of the sun makes for rich blue sky and the golden trees really set it off...my favourite time of year by far

Photoshop - he's well known for it...

What a great report Chris It's always a great pleasure to see you and Sarah

And guess what, I forgot to film Fi almost damaging a bit I still need Still all good though
Can't wait to get home and get the video made, you always take us to the best of places

P.S we seen a white mountain goat! ran out in front of the car near Kaslo to quick to get a pic though

See you again soon.....somewhere

Cheers Scoob, great to share a day in the hills and good meal and a pint in town. I'll be looking out for the video being posted Glad you ticked the goat off the list, it was great to see you guys again, no doubt we'll do it again soon

Say hi to Fi and tell her I'm glad the video wasn't running for that moment

Great report Chris - thanks again for being so awesome! Almost got a 'full house' on the bingo card this year, only missing out on the moose as we saw a grizzly with cubs on the way up Idaho Peak!
Will take a while to sort through all the photos and videos (relieved not everything was caught on camera, ha!) but here's a few more from this hike

Cheeeeese! :)

heading for 'the wall'

on top of the world!

fabulous tour guide ;)

'til the next time... x

Another great report Chris. Your Canadian mountains always look so "pristine Not a blade of grass out of place. Limestone hills both in the UK and Alps are always heavily water eroded and have moss and grass - the latter even above 3500m. I guess it's the bitterly cold winters, but they look as if they'd only been formed "last week" - though in fact I think the rockies are older than the Alps.

Looks amazing, Chris, and brings back happy memories of our trip earlier in the summer. Canada 2017 already in the planning!

Great pics Fi, loved having you guys here and look forward to the next time (when we finally work out where that will be I'll let you know ....I find myself rooting for the remain campaign )

Thanks PMSD, I think the incredibly arid nature of this area in particular means the limestone doesn't get the same rate of erosion, other areas of the rockies have some really friable limestone (as I can attest after a couple of falls )

Thanks Sue, if you're coming by this way again give us a shout and we'll have another go at a meet up though I confess we are currently 50/50 on staying here or moving to Europe after a very good offer from over there...another week or two before we finalise I think

Another absolutely fantastic walk and report Chris. Not envious at all! Keep em coming!
