Baden Powell Trail. ~DAY HIKE~ So last Friday I took off for a day hike that started in Lynn Valley and ended up in Quarry Rock. It's one of my favourite hikes to do and this was the first with full winter conditions. The section through Seymour mountain had a ton of snow, with no tracks to follow at certain points. Overall it success and got me out of the city for a few hours.

Garibaldi Park. ~PLAYING FAVOURITES~ Overlooking Garibaldi Lake from Black Tusk. One of my favourite hikes of all time. I've been up here many times and love exploring the area. Winter or summer, it's "easily" accessible year round of you're adventurous.

Elfin Lakes. ~THE MOUNTAINS ARE CALLING~ We had the opportunity to unwind from long distance hiking with a short overnight hike up to Elfin Lakes. The weather cooperated for the most part, only raining in the evening. The biggest event of the trip were the amount of black bears roaming in the hills. We counted 15 by the time we reached the car the next morning. None really cared about our presence, it also made great conversation with the many other hikers we encountered. @go.wing.it lost her phone. It fell into a bush while berry foraging and we didn't recover it till the next morning. It survived freezing temperatures and heavy rain. Good job @samsungcanada

Pacific Crest Trail. ~WHEN YOU'RE NOT HIKING~ Nuff said right...? Hiking in the winter is fewer and far between. Trying to kill some time.

Pacific Crest Trail. ~MONDAY MORNINGS~ Life on trail was simple. Even waking up. We never used alarm clocks because why? We wanted to escape our routine lives.. Here's to waking up cheery and bright eyed each day!

Pacific Crest Trail. ~POST TRAIL LIFE~ Coming back to reality was fun for me in the beginning. I got to keep my beard and hair for the first week and enjoyed being free to eat and shower as often as I wanted. Now that we're back and a few months have passed, we can't stop thinking of the next big hiking adventure. The hair is gone but the forest is still alive in us! We're tinkering with our gear and throwing around ideas for another big hike in the next couple years.. So stay tuned friends..
