Livinston Springs: A hike upon the snow...

These are actually from a few weeks ago. The snow should have long since departed from our ample soils, but it lingered...it lingers. The thaw is definately here, and I got my first taste of a warm sun on my face as I drained a cup of java and meandered my way through thick literacy studies on my back deck tonight.

It felt good.

Well then, here are some random and recent pictures:

The first flicker of the season, at least the first one I have seen since last fall.

Old trail marker pointing the way to the Livingston Spring trapping cabin. The route is awfully flat and uneventful, other than the fact you are walking through a cemetary of pine trees. Once at the cabin though...it gets beautiful!


The cabins themselves, worth the wintery trek.



Apparently this is normal...

...I say ignorant, stupid, wasteful, selfish and vain.

Rock Climbing: Giscome, BC

...and away we go!

Here are some varied pics of a recent outing to climb among some geological madness. Weather was awsome, snow was melting, rock was dry (mostly).

























...and there we are.
