Seymour

It's that time of year, and the weather was nice this weekend, so we got our trip in to Seymour (see blog below).
There's already a lot of snow, and it's more than enough to have fun, but it will be really awesome when we get another few feet to play with.





More playing on the way up... We only went partway, partly because we didn't have enough time, and partly because I'm still recovering from a bout with the old H1N1 . There were also a bunch of people. Turns out idiot tourists have learned that snowshoeing is fun, and they're crowding up all of our favourite haunts.

This must be at high end of our hike. It always looks tropical in Vancouver from up there (it isn't).


...



You can take the boring well worn path down, or you can keep away from tourists in Lulu pants (not enough buffer from the cold in my books, but who am I to judge style) and see the nicest and best snow. Around here it felt like walking on piles of sugar. Neat.

No tourists here. And lots of fresh snow to slide down.


We totally stage these pictures.


I'm working on a career as a model for a sporting goods store.

From the video below, you'll get an idea about why going down the hill is so much fun...

Awesome! Love snowshoeing... Ground's still bare and dry here though.

Take care!

These photos represent everything that is perfect about winter (although I'd add a skating rink in there)!
