While living in British Columbia,
climbing and
mountaineering
were my two primary recreational interests, along with
backpacking in summer and
backcountry skiing in winter.
On this page I have included trip reports and
a
list of peaks summited;
these are mostly weekend alpine climbs, ski ascents, or scrambles around the
BC lower mainland,
but they also include a few climbs in the Selkirks, Canadian Rockies,
and Cascades.
Some of the more exciting adventures include visits to
the
Canadian Rockies in
July 2002,
the
Columbia Icefields
in February 2003 and again
in
May 2005,
the
Tantalus Range
in July 2004,
and the
Great Divide Trail
in July 2005.
Cycling has kept me busy
since moving to regions lacking steep terrain;
during the summer of 2006,
I
cycled across Canada from Vancouver to
St. John's.
