Thank you to Dawn for the report and photos below. Tricia and I continue to hope that next week we will be able to return to walking!
Lovely walk today:
An enthusiastic group of Walkers tackled the Lake Helen McKenzie/Battleship Lake Loop above Paradise Meadows today. By leaving Home Depot at 8a.m. instead of at 9a.m., we were able to avoid the worst of the day's heat...and were on the final stretch back before other walkers started to crowd the trail. It turned out to be a lovely day. Alpine flowers were scattered over the landscape and a highlight was when Patti showed us a big patch of Sundew carnivorous plants by a pond. We all gathered at Tim Hortons for cold drinks afterwards.
