Grotto Mountain

It’s been a while since I saw fit to post anything here.

Like everyone else I’ve been doing my best just to get by, looking at things constantly through a covid lens. Still it’s been all right. If covid inadvertently caused me to spend more time with Kristien and the kids, then it’s been a good thing. 

Things are basically back to normal, and this past weekend we glamour camped with some friends of ours at Banff… both families stayed in trapper tents. I had a CWRA water conference to attend during the week, so Sunday after Kristien and the kids went back home I had a bit of time to kill and I went for a solo hike by myself above Canmore on Grotto mountain. 

It was raining lightly at the beginning of the hike around 8:30, but true to spotwx’s prediction, it stopped at 9 AM and although it was very cloudy, I stayed dry. Every now and then the clouds would clear up though and it was quite pretty. I only came accros a couple of other hikers during the day, so hiking on rainy days does have its benefits.
