Adventures on the West Coast

Trail running a classic alpine route!

The fun doesn't stop even when it reaches -18C

Scaled back adventures doesn't mean scaled back fun.

What was supposed to be an easy scramble turned out not so easy.

Skiing cold smoke before conditions deteriorated. Forecast, conditions, and stokage lined up for an awesome first trip to the Columbia Mountain Range

While not a Coast Mountain adventure, I couldn't help but write a short little excerpt on our trip to the Canadian Rockies. A classic scramble up an iconic mountain in the Banff Lake Louise area. 

Second Attemp at John Clarke, but added a traverse to Spice things up. This trip report is on the John Clarke Outrigger Traverse. This traverse requires summitting both Mt. John Clarke and Outrigger

Lessons learned in the mountains after a series of minor mistakes lead to a potentially hazardous situation in the backcountry 

Doing the Garibaldi Neve Traverse from South to North as Spring begins. Even when weather calls for sunshine, you can always count on the mountains to throw a curveball at you. 

When ideal weather presents itself for a trail run, you seize the opportunity, even though this trip would double your typical annual trail running mileage. 

Sometimes a solid blue run is all you need in life.
