Took out my snowshoes! (Sorry bicycle)

Last weekend I was commenting on how easy it was to take out my bicycle instead of my snowshoes.  Well, today I went snowshoeing with the Caledonia Ramblers Hiking club.  It was the PERFECT day for it!  It wasn't too cold outside and the sun came out later.  I could also sleep in as the snowshoe was close to town and started at 9am.

We snowshoed up on the Greenway trail which is by the University of Northern British Columbia.  It's a very popular place for people to walk, bike, ski, or snowshoe.

There's me.


There was a decent sized group today which was nice.  We started off on the trail then bushwacked for a bit till we came upon a trail again.  Total distance covered, 10kms, so not too long.  My kind of snowshoe!  I got some fresh air, and good company, what more could I ask for?





We stop to let people catch up.


The sun peaks out during our lunch break.

  1. It looks really beautiful up there! The first photo is quite stunning actually. I think its great you move to snowshoeing when you can't bike - and from how it looks, I'd say you're awfully lucky! :)

  2. Cool! Those are beautiful surroundings. I want to try snow shoeing and other types of winter sports. Looks like a lot of fun.
