Day 3 Iceline/Twin Falls – Yoho NP

Siobhan at the top of Twin Falls with the Whaleback Mt (2633 m) in the background.

Day 3 Twin Falls CG to Twin Falls to Takakkaw Falls Parking Lot, 14.7 km, 650 m Elevation Gain, 760 m Elevation Loss, 5 hrs 20 min.

For my standards I slept in. I did not have the coffee on until 7:00 am. The water from the Yoho River is quite silty with the runoff from the glaciers. If you actually read the signs at the campground the water source is a small stream on the east side with nice clear water. Took some photos of my by the Yoho River using the timer on my camera and propping it on a rock. Then another camper who had risen early offered to take some photos which looked better since they were not taken from the ground. Chatted for the while with the other camper. He was intending on going up the Whaleback then hiking up to the peak, along the ridge and scrambling Isolation Peak before dropping back down to the trail along the Little Yoho River. The route he talked about is clearly marked on my Viewranger App and could make for a fun day especially if you could snag a campsite at Little Yoho CG.

Coffee by the Yoho River. Another early riser at camp took the photo.
Getting breakfast ready. Since Siobhan eats oatmeal for breaky had to bring my old steel pot.

I started breakfast at around 8 am. We had many options for the day. We could head straight back to the car, go to Twin Falls then back to the car, go to the top of Twin Falls then back to the car or traverse the Whaleback. We decided to take snacks and water in a day pack (the top lid of my Osprey Aether converts to a day pack) and go to the top of Twin Falls then backtrack to the campground have lunch and pick up the rest of our gear for the walk back to the car. After breakfast we packed up our sleeping gear into our backpacks and stowed them in the tent and hung up our food. We hit the trail at 9:10 am.

Morning light.

It is less than 1.5 km to Twin Falls. We arrived at the viewpoint for the falls at 9:30 am. After a nice little warm up this is when we confirmed that we wanted to hike to the top of the falls. The hike would be 2.5 km with 240 m of elevation gain and a quick 80 m drop at the end. To climb the steep cliff that forms the drop for Twin Falls the trail traverses northward away from the walls and utillized several switchbacks to keep the gradient from becoming overly steep.

Trail is in good condition but Mother Nature put some rubble in the way to keep us alert.
The top is not too far away now.
Heading down. My memory tells me this had some fairly steep, rooty sections.

It took us 55 minutes to make our way to the cliff at the top of Twin Falls. There is a very spacious and wide area at the top of the falls making an excellent nature viewing platform.

We went back to the open area at the cliff a little ways from the falls to enjoy the view and have our snacks. We spent 35 minutes relaxing at the cliff taking in the view of the Yoho Valley.

The natural viewing platform. It not a sharp drop off. Even though it will look like we are sitting at the edge there is rock at our feet.

Pretending to rock climb.

We headed back at 11:00 am. It was a speedy hike back to the campground. We met our first people of the day on way down the cliff. They had full backpacks on and had started from parking lot at Takakkaw Falls and were heading over the Whaleback to camp at Little Yoho CG. Twin Falls CG was fairly quiet when we arrived back.We grabbed our food from the bear hang and we were eating our lunches by 12:15 pm.

Great views from the trail at the top of the cliff.
Quickly heading uphill.

Lunch time. Getting warm out
Lunch and the ever present can of bear spray.

Shortly after arriving a large group of young people arrived and began looking for available campsites. We had not taken our tent down yet as we had stored our backpacks inside while we had been hiking. It did not take long to tear down the tent and pack it away. We were all good to go by 12:45pm. We had barely left the campsite when someone had thrown a tent down in our spot. The hike back to the car was fairly rapid. We did stop in at Laughing Falls CG. I wanted to show Siobhan just how small the campsite area was. I had boasted that you could walk around it in 30 seconds. We did walk around it and Siobhan informed that it took a bit over a minute. We also took a quick side trip to see Angel Staircase Falls. Being late in the summer there was very little water flowing down the staircase. We arrived back at the car at 2:20 pm.

All packed up. Siobhan in good spirits even though we are on the final leg of our trip.
Back at Laughing Falls CG.
Heading down and out.
Not a whole lot of water flowing down Angel Staircase Falls
That’s it, we’re done.

We arrived back a the car at 2:20 pm. We had a marvelous three days on the trail. Yoho NP is a real jewel of the national parks. Even after now a total of 5 days in the park I can already see how I could find several more days on the trails exploring the park. We finished our day at our favourite restaurant and patio, the Santraps Restaurant at the Canmore Golf Course. Ordering a fine, tall cold beer and hot juicy burger. A great way to end a great trip.

New trip posted, three day trip in the Rockwall in New trip posted, three day trip in the Rockwall in Kootenay NP with @sio.mellors. Introduction and Day 1 up on Bootwreckers.

Trip was suppose to be hiking Northover Ridge in Kanananaskis but smoke had us change plans at the last minute.

This would be my third multi day trip on the Rockwall but the first for Siobhan.

Managed to get two camping sites on the Rockwall and instead of smoke we had to deal with the threat of rain.

We did get wet but we had a blast.

Day 1 is from Paint Pots TH to Helmet Falls CG, with a side trip to get up close the the falls. Pretty straightforward day but visiting Helmet Falls is always special.

The sixth and final day of our 2022 GDT Section D The sixth and final day of our 2022 GDT Section D hike is up on Bootwreckers, see link in bio.

This day took us from a random camp on the Howse Floodplain to the Mustafa Canyon parking lot. This was an adventurous day with bushwhacking, stream crossings and dead fall but a simply glorious end to a wonderful hike on the GDT. 

Again thanks  to Sara (@sd_kuz) and Lillian (@waterlilizee) for sharing this adventure with me. I am sure we will meet again on a trail someday.

Truly epic day on the trail. Pass through the debris of two avalanches, had lunch by a waterfall, crawled over so much dead fall and hiked on the Howse Flood Plain.

The sunset on the flood plain was one of most magical I have seen.

As always a big thanks to Sara (@sd_kuz) and Lillian (@waterlilizee) for sharing this adventure with me. The Team totally rocked the trail.

Arizona Trail Passages 14 and 15. Some photos of Arizona Trail Passages 14 and 15.

Some photos of my recent hike down a couple of Passages of the Arizona Trail. 

The trail is so diverse, rolling terrain cut by shallow washes leads to the expanse of the desert then into rugged canyons and tall peaks, all in a space of 92 km (58 miles).

Had a great time, some blisters gave me some concerns but they seem to be doing fine now that they are out of my hiking shoes.

Got lucky with Trail Magic courtesy of Condiments who drove his 4x4 deep into an unarmed wash, was really in the middle of no where, and then again at the start of Passage 15, missed the Trail Angel's name, the wind was so loud.

Like to thank my Trail Angels, Carole for driving me to Oracle to start the trip, with side trip to a Hayden Az, a real ghost town and to Edith for leaving a water cache for me at Passage 15.

Included a video of my time at the high point for Passage 15. My kid likes it when you stop and enjoy the view you earned, thought they would appreciate my effort in the face of 1000 mph winds (ok maybe thats a bit of an exaggeration).

Thanks Arizona and the AZT for providing more memories.

I will be back

Day 4 of our 2022 GDT Section D hike is up on the Day 4 of our 2022 GDT Section D hike is up on the website, see link in bio.

This was a truly epic day spent on the Amiskwi and Collie Creek Alternates.

The weather cooperated starting with a spectacular sunrise on the Mummery Glacier, rainbows and blue skies on the ridge.

We had a brief encounter with a little black bear who scampered quickly away. 

Finished off the day with a cold beer, Grizzly Paw Rutting Elk Red, that I had carried with me and it tasted great.

Easily one of th best days on the trail ever.

Sound On. Video clips from my hike along th Supe Sound On. 

Video clips from my hike along th Superstion Ridgeline.

Was an epic hike, 24km from my campsite at Miners Needle to First Water Trailhead where my car was.

Wouldn't recommend doing all in one day backpacking, as the final descent down Siphon Draw Wash is brutal, but I did it in 10hrs 45min

Would love to redo th hike at some point and actaull stop and camp along the ridge.

I had enough water to stop, but I was enticed by the prospects of a beer to finish.

Day 5 and 6 of our Green River Canoe trip from 201 Day 5 and 6 of our Green River Canoe trip from 2017 is up on Bootwreckers, see link in Bio.

The day started in the dark with a hike up to the Dollhouse to watch the sunrise.

After doing an bit of exploring including a short hike out to Beehive Arch we headed back to camp to pack up and catch the jet boat ride back to Moab.

No trip to Moab is complete without a stop at the Moab Brewery, I had a tall smooth Derailleur Ale to compliment my mushroom, Swiss bacon burger.

Once back home it was time for snuggles with the little fella who waited patently for us whole we were away. Doggie snuggles for the win!

Another epic adventure in the books.

Just a few photos from my epic 3 day hike through Just a few photos from my epic 3 day hike through Superstion Mts of Arizona. 

I think it was Plan D or maybe E. Saw photos of th Grand Canyon and many of th roads there were closed, so good choice not to go.

Day 1 - First Water TH over to Ther Battleship via many stream crossings and camp near Black Top Mesa. Due to the heavy rains, water was not an issue.

Day 2 - up past Weavers Needle and over to camp below Miners Needle

Day 3 - Epic 26 km day up on down the Superstions Ridge Trail and back to the car. This was probably the second hardest day I hav e had on trail. The trail is more "route" very ill defined for the first 2/3rds of the way. Also includes numerous down climbs, I frequently tossed my poles down 3m (10ft) of more. This is not an easy trail, and the final descent down Siphon Wash is absolutely intense. After leaving camp at 7:15am (sunrise at 7:30) I arrived at the car at 5;45pm.

Needless to say I didn't do much Friday.

Will write more later.

Thanks to my adopted trail team, James, John, Kevin and Patrick. Four Med students from UofM who allowed me to tag along as the caboose for the first two days.

Now, time to fly home.....

Sound On! About that hike.....it is not going to Sound On!

About that hike.....it is not going to happen this year.

A winter storm has come through, bringing rain, risk of flash floods and near freezing temperatures. At the prospect of hiking two or even three days in the rain, I kept hearing this voice in my head "You know, I'm not having any fun" , spoken by @kbsymington on day two of a four day hike, I could totally see that thought passing through my head if I went ahead with the hike.

I did meet my Trail Angel Bev the Kelvin TH and the scenery was just spectacular! I could hear the desert calling me. It was simply beautiful, but Bev didn't try to talk me into going and did say when I come back I was to contact her, can't wait.

My motel manger told me to go up Hwy 60 towards Globe, AZ, and check out the Queen River Canyon just after the tunnel.

It was a lot of fun to do a little exploring and it actually confirmed I made the right decision,  I got so cold in the few minutes I was out taking photos.

As I got back to the motel I was happy to see a ray of light at the horizon, maybe the rain is going to go away.

I also discovered my getting old hiking shoes leak.....

Planning on a 4 day trip around th Superstitions starting the day after tomorrow. 

Happy trails.

Day 4 on the Green River was another great day exp Day 4 on the Green River was another great day exploring canyons, hiking and of course paddling. Full summary on the website, see link in bio.

We started off the day exploring Jasper Canyon, found an amazing Anasazi house.

Then we hit the river and joined the Colorado River for the last couple of miles to our final desk at Spanish Bottom.

After dinner we took a quick hike up to Doll House, which we would revisit the next morning for sunrise.

A real mix of a day which made it a whole lotta fun.
