Hip Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy: May 2012
http://hiphiker.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 26, 2012. Barrier Lake - May 16, 2010 (from the archives). Spring in the mountains. Links to this post. Thursday, May 24, 2012. Little Elbow Trail - May 16, 2010 (from the archives). And don't get me started on those thick, wet, late spring snowstorms so common in this region. Ah, but there's one other sign of spring hiking that needs to be noted, and observed at all costs. those grumpy, hungry bears. Links to this post. Tuesday, May 15, 2012. Sometimes you have no idea the hike you're abou...

Hip Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy: January 2012
http://hiphiker.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 1, 2012. Snowshoeing - Kananaskis Village Loop - January 10, 2010. It was almost two years ago, but what we saw still applies today. This isn't a terribly popular trail, likely because almost every time we've set out, there hasn't been enough snow. We've learned to stick with the north side of the trail that leaves from the NW side of the village parking lot, and only attempt the south half of the loop when there's plenty of snow cover to be found.

Hip Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Highway 66 (near Elbow Falls) - April 1, 2013
http://hiphiker.blogspot.com/2013/04/highway-66-near-elbow-falls-april-1-2013.html
Monday, April 1, 2013. Highway 66 (near Elbow Falls) - April 1, 2013. This is what it looks like when you take your two year old twins on their first "hike". No child carriers, no wagon, just their little feet. And a highway closed until mid-May. One day I hope the surroundings will be more interesting than the stuff painted on the road.

Tuesday, October 23, 2012. Chester Lake - Snowshoeing - February 7, 2010 - From the Archives. With 10-20 cm dumping in the city, and so much more white stuff falling in the mountains (Burstall Pass had over 25 cm base before this most recent storm even hit! It's time to start dreaming about snowshoeing! So to get through this transition, I thought we'd look back on a snowshoeing favorite. Chester Lake. Even at the trailhead. deep snow goodness! And it was all over our poor frozen snowshoer too. There's s...
