Feeling this a lot lately with the extreme cold winter temperatures that we've had the last few weeks!

I'm done with minus 30 to minus 40 degree temperatures 🥶😭

Check out my latest Playlist on my backpacking trip. This was a 9 day, 144 km trip into the Wilmore and then onto the North Boundary Trail in the Jasper National Park. We then went off the NBT and did the Little Heaven and McLaren Pass loop to Ancient Wall and Natural Arch.

There was so much beauty to be seen here and we basically had the whole trail to ourselves for the majority of the trip. The trails were remote and provided such solitude. It was exactly what I needed and can't wait to go back one day.

Recently completed a 9 day backpacking trip into the Willmore and into the Jasper National Park. Hiked part of the North Boundray Trail and then did the Little Heaven and McLaren Pass and the to Ancient Wall and to the Natural Arch.
This trip was so much more than I had imagined. The views were breathtaking. Two weeks later and I am still thinking about this trip. I can't wait until I can return one day.

If you have time and wanna see what the "West Coast Trail" is all about you can watch my Video below. My sister and I just recently finished this hike and it was one for the books!
This hike is a combination of beautiful scenery and breathtaking views to a rugged and remote trail on Vancouver Island In British Columbia, Canada.
It is 75 kms in length and we did it over 6 Nights and 7 days.

I will also have a shortened video of the highlights of this trai that will be released later this week so keep your eye out for that one as well.

The West Coast Trail did not disappoint!

This trail was rugged, challenging, technical, beautiful and worth every bruise, cut and all thenbody aches.

During the hike, I wasn't sure I'd do this trail again, but now that I'm finished and had a few days to recover, I'd definitely go back.

Miss it already!

Yesterday's hike was epic! A long day filled with challenges and both mentally and physically exhausting but wouldn't have it any other way!

These are the days that we grow and learn and test what we are really made of.

Even with all the post holing and falling....I still LOVE hiking ❤

Lake O'Hara was amazing this summer!

I was lucky enough to be able to get reservations at Lake O'Hara campground in the Yoho National Park this summer and explore some of the beautiful trails that lie in these magnificent mountains. This was my 1st solo backpacking trip and I was there for 3 nights and it was magical.
I did some filming while I was there finished editing Part 1, which consists of day 1 and 2.

I cant wait till I get to go back someday ❤

This was a great day! It was my 2nd last Bronze Peak Mountain to complete and I enjoyed it more than what I thought I would of considering the steep climb up a powerline trail.

If you wanna watch my hike you can see it on my You Tube channel below, along with a few more of the Bronze Peak Hikes.

Explored the Bergeron Cliffs & Falls in
Tumbler Ridge BC. First Spring hike and it was a beautiful day for it. With just over 15 kms or 9 miles there was a variety of terrain and scenery to see.
