Bella and Tucker enjoyed our walk at the Lewes River Dam so much, I decided to take them on a longer walk on Wednesday, but one that was more warm-weather friendly for Bella. The trail around the Whitehorse airport was an easy choice. It’s always fun – level, lots...

We have heavy rain and 12°C/53°F as I right this, so it may be an indoor day, but I’ve been getting out on the e-bike a fair bit. The network of trails available from my front door is quite mind-boggling, and I’m both exploring, and looking for a route...

I took Bella and Tucker for a walk at the Lewes River Dam on July 31st, and was very pleased to see that the water level had dropped well over a foot. Though flooding is still extensive, the government greatly reduced the areas under evacuation alerts yesterday, and after...

As we were descending into Whitehorse on our Air North flight last Wednesday, I could see that much of the flooding that stopped me on my e-bike ride on June 10th had receded, so I decided to give it another try on July 30th. I’m using 2 apps on...

July 28th was simply a travel day for Cathy and I, flying home from Vancouver. There was more, of course, but nothing worth talking about 🙂 Our flight got delayed, but we got quite a comedy show at our boarding gate at YVR. There were a bunch of guys...

Tuesday, July 27th, our second full day in Vancouver, was a recovery day for Cathy. I stayed with her until early afternoon, then went on an 11-km walk to see a part of Stanley Park I’d never seen in the 40 years I lived in the Vancouver area. Most...

July 26th, our first full day in Vancouver, started early – Cathy had an angiogram scheduled for 07:00. It was a pretty quiet day for me, but I did take a walk along the harbour on a spectacular day. Staying at the Sheraton Wall Centre hotel right across the...

Last week Cathy and I had to return to Vancouver. It was another medical trip unfortunately, but walking and photography are stress relievers for me and I put on about 35 km during the 2 full and 2 part days there. The 3 main walks are mostly what I’ll...

Continuing on with the story, after dinner on Saturday, July 17th, we drove back to Summit Creek to do a little walk. A very little walk because that’s all Cathy can handle right now. A couple of the small trees overlooking Summit Lake. Nearest is a subalpine fir (Abies...

On the afternoon of Saturday, July 17th, our third day in the White Pass, I took Tucker on a big hike up what I call Border Ridge. It doesn’t have a name and pretty much nobody else goes there so I get to call it whatever I want 🙂...
