The mountains are wet. Awesome long weekend!

We took off to the moun­tains for the August long week­end. Lots of prep. time required…it’s the first time in years that we’d gone camp­ing. Had to dust off all the gear, test it, patch it and pick up some new gear.

I’ve pos­ted the gal­lery of image of the trip, includ­ing a rather dra­mat­ic run through a police road­b­lock / road clos­ure due to excess­ive sleet / snow as a res­ult of extreme weather.

Of course, on the last day of the trip, the weath­er cleared and was abso­lutely awe­some! Isn’t that always the way. 

Any­way, I’ve dumped the images in to my flickr account, and they’re vis­ible here too.

    Did you get stuck in the traffic jam on High­way 2 on your way back? I heard it was bru­tal. A really nasty acci­dent basic­ally shut­down the high­way (north­bound was crawl­ing, south­bound was closed).

    Nope, we had good weath­er. Took HWY 16 east from Jasper straight into town…steered clear of most traffic prob­lems, though we did see a Camper/Trailer wreck…looks like a guy took the corner too fast or swerved to miss some­thing. Shattered trail­er in the ditch, stuff every­where. Nobody hurt.
