wee HIKE ?

Whoa

I'm not 16 anymore, Nossir. Went on a Wee Hike to Headwall Lakes, 40mins ish away in a NW tilt from Canmore. Wow, length of TWELVE KILOMETRES UNVERIFIED since ah didnae pack me GPS ( PPC with BT antenny ( allo ? BATTERIES ? ))


Left RD 0530hrs, arrived at the trailhead 0830hrs, and, well, HIKED. Approximately 1100hrs I was axin mesel what I got INTO. And THEN, the Path thru the Enchanted Forest before Serious Assault on first lake can be analyzed. Picture above is from damn near the top of the first lake lookin doon, nice Eh ?



You sure can be made to feel small and gnat-like in such settings I'll tell you what.


AnyWAYS, more l8tr praps, but LONG STORY SHORT, long ass GORGEOUS HIKE which generated HEIGHTENED FOCUS since we got caught in a SNOWY WHITE SQUALL whilst HAULING ARSE down to BELOW the Treeline, and KNOCK SNOW from Left EarHole. Last 1.8ish kms back to The TickTruck were, in short, long. AAAANDYhow, the BEST shot of House Whiskey and Ale tankard I've tasted in a while, likesay, was had by mesel and chum who introduced me to this portion of God's Country, Scotty, whose almost parting words RANG DOUBLE TRUE once we tried to GET OUT'VE the Unit for said tankard. having 40mins to canmore with which to SEIZE UP, were : " Make Sure you bring someone else back here... " SO, you've ALL BEEN WARNED !

Stay tuned, next post will be JUICY !
