Grouse Snowshoe Grind

We spent a beautiful and warm Sunday afternoon snowshoeing up the Grouse Snowshoe Grind.  Wow.  That was intense!  The elevation was steep and my cardio fitness level was pushed WAY past it's limits.  The view was worth every huff and puff at the top though!

Going down was a lot easier and fun too!

We completed the day with burgers and fries and cokes.  Yep, we went all out and replenished every single burnt calorie!

A New Years Day trek up to Manning to test out the new snowshoes happened yesterday.  We had a wonderful time.  The snow wasn't super awesome but there was enough.  

 We did a 5 km trek around Lightning Lakes.  It was invigorating and beautiful.

Afterward the Whiskeyjacks were very friendly and ate all our munchies!

We can't wait to get out there again.
