Jealous. Way to get after it, Zack, but give yourself credit for the trans-province portion. I think you were skiing in Alberta at Lake Louise.
Sounds like a great trip. I'll have to visit that hut someday
holy moly Zack--a panorama! My expectations are rising...
nice to see where you've been. Let's see some hotsprings!
