dreaming of a desert hike …
It’s bloody SNOWING in Calgary.
I need 5-6 days in an arid, quiet, bleakly beautiful wilderness.

Leon visits Canmore
My buddy Leon was in town visiting Altadore Gymnastics Club.
A group of us went up to Canmore to stay with Kelly Mock (who recently relocated from Whitehorse).
Our day hike in Cougar Creek I posted on my hiking blog.

trip report – climbing Mt Adams, WA
Mission accomplished.
The FARTs got to the summit under the expert leadership of Matt Wilson.

Good adventure! But … I still prefer hiking.
George at Lakeview
George Novak has a dream. To eat the World’s Largest HOAGIE.
… um, actually that’s Homer Simpson.
George’s goal is to mountain bike from Athol to Lakview, Idaho. That’s 42 miles and 4hr 49min of hard riding, with well over 5600 feet of climbing, over infamous logging roads.
Will he ever make it?
I dunno.
Just in case he doesn’t, I photoshopped George into our photo from our adventure today. That’s him swimming.

Glasers to holiday in Kauai, Hawaii
They have 4 nights booked in July at the Tropical Family Villa.
And a week booked at Hale Mana, a three acre multi-million dollar private estate on a bluff overlooking a waterfall.
This plantation style home is perched high on a bluff with pristine, 360-degree views of the ocean, valley, mountains and river below. …
details – Hale Mana
Rob’s looking forward to hiking the famous Kalalau Trail on the Na Pali Coast. The same one I did earlier this year.
Wish I was going with them.
