Had a chance to escape the city today with my hiking friend Taylor. She’s always game to go for a walk, especially when it is in the mountains.
We were out in Bragg Creek last week and in certain dark hollows the ground has snow already. The dog days of summer indeed.
Today, we took a trail…
Settler’s Road and the Forestry Trunk Road into Kananaskis
Kilometres: approx 930
Temps: vary from 14 at night to 30 celcius during riding days
Time Two Days Riding – One Night Camping
Day 1
Things have been so busy this summer this is the first chance to squeeze in a multi-day ride. Thought I’d try some new areas…
This year has been so busy with work and with renovations that I haven’t really had enough time to ride hardly at all. I’ve been for a couple short rides to Bragg Creek and commuting but today was my first real ride. The weather also hasn’t been cooperating and honestly the first really nice weather…
Finally had decent weather and some time off again. I wanted to get some more practise on backroads and gravel.
Not a bad day. Much of the route I’ve been on before in the truck or car. A bit cooler in Kananaskis and it even, gasp, started to snow at higher altitudes.
I’ve gained some confidence…
