Spring Fever!

Filed under: / by J.P.

It's JP here, a quick blog as I'm almost out the door to enjoy yet another stunning (and I mean stunning) day on the trails in the Purcell Mountain Range. Fry Creek is on the agenda (check out our facebook page "Mountain Trek" for photos) - our guests are in for a visual sensation. As one Aussie guest once remarked "what you call creeks here, we call rivers in Australia". Imagine..forest, a breath taking canyon carved by a  raging creek, and the grandeur of Kootenay Lake. Fry Creek trail has it all. 

It's Starting to Feel like Summer in the Mountains

I know, it's only mid-April but when the weather throws me a high temperature, I begin to look at the Kootenay lake with anticipation. When can I go in for a swim? We have a long standing competition between the guides at Mountain Trek...who jumps into the water first? Brrrr....trust me, this water never truly warms up but gosh! does it invigorate your body, mind, and soul once you take the plunge. For those of you who have been here and done that, you know what I mean.
