Epic Hikes

Since I like to make lists and I was thinking of them when I was hiking the Blue Lakes on Monday, I thought I would draw up a list of some of the memorable hikes I’ve enjoyed over the years.

  • Kootenay Plains, AB; 1987
  • Wood Bison Trail, Elk Island, AB; 1987
  • Siffleur Falls, AB; 1988, 1994, 1996, 1998, 2005
  • Cape Blomidon, NS; 1992
  • Mount Carleton, NB; 1992 & 1994
  • Mount Washington, BC; 1995
  • Cape Scott, BC; 1995
  • Huftarøy, Norway; 1997
  • Mont Salève, France; 1997
  • Shoreline Trail, Elk Island, AB; 2001
  • Moss Lake Trail, Elk Island, AB; 2002
  • The Chief, BC; 2005
  • Los Tablones, Guatemala; 2006
  • Salto de Chilascó, Guatemala; 2006, 2007, 2008
  • Mountain in Purulhá, Guatemala; 2007
  • Blue Lakes, BC; 2010

My plan is to hike the Appalachian Trail with Blaise when he’s 12/13 in 2018 as a rite of passage into manhood (for him, not me). This summer Amber and I are going to do a couple hikes in Waterton. One of my life goals is to summit mountains in 20 countries (so far I have Canada, Norway, and France). I’d also like to hike the West Coast Trail one day.
