5 hours on the bike today. I did not really know where I was going but was a treat going back down the same route as yesterday. Had coffee at the Columbia Ice Field, had to stop I nearly died of cold
How cool, early morning sun pushing through the smoke….
I stated leaving the magnificent Rockies behind and was a little concerned about the rest of trip, boring I thought then this showed up
Brett Ballairs is doing his nut, I saw plenty trout in this little body of water. I picked up an Alberta Fishing guide mag. Kinda do’s and do nots. There are literally 1000’s of fisheries to choose from…next year. Oh yes and golf courses everywhere and breweries….pinch me
After all the fantastic twists and turns I hit the flats……last 40km dead straight. Saw farms, farms, farms oh yes a few oil pumps…
