Cheeky little birds – WPC

So we’ve decided to contribute to the weekly photo challenge on wordpress, sharing themed picture of our travels. For this week, the topic is „Cheeky – Find a little irreverence in your world.“

We certainly did, with this little Whiskyjack planting himself on Chris‘ head during a hike up to Joffre Lakes a few weeks ago. Can you be any more cheeky?

Elfin Lakes im Winter – Schneeschuh Wunderland!

Man kann mit Fug und Recht behaupten, dass viele von uns bei MEC schon sehr aufgeregt waren, für den Schneeschuh-Trip nach Elfin Lakes ausgewählt worden zu sein!

However, we keep on learning, about ourselves, from inspiring people we meet, from new tasks we take one. Keeping the discipline of writing a blog is one of them. Learning how to promote the other.

So this is our first attempt in taking part of the photo challenge, with this weeks topic Serene – sharing a visual moment of blissful quiet!

Well, immediately we could think of nothing else then our recent snowshoeing hike to the backcountry of B.C., the Elfin Lakes Shelter in Garibaldi Provincial Park. The vastness of this land, covered in snow, no traces other than those you break. Silence, as soon as you stop talking, just the whispering of the wind. Crispy cold it was, exhausting it was, but so rewarding to enjoy the moments far out there! Have a look:
