The skyline is hazy due to the forest fire 250km away on the other side of the mountain.
What a beautiful trail in British Columbia, Canada. Spent 2 nights at Whistler Village this week. Dirt cheap rates since the smoky haze made for rough scenic shots of mountains.
Up close it's ok for photos.
It was an easy hike probably about intermediate level, the trail is a part of a series of trails that follow along the Cheakamus River. We did one of loops which was probably 4-5km, didn't use a map so I'm not certain. Taking time and checking out everything of interest it took a few leisurely hours.
The water is ice cold moving fast enough to sweep me away should I fall in. But I couldn't resist dipping my feet in for a new experience. First time wadding in glacial water fresh from the top of mountain.
This small suspension bridge was really wobbly and fun to bounce on. I know I shouldn't jump or hang from the wires and I promise I won't do it again... on this bridge.
The air still felt fresh even with the smokiness compared to a nasty smog day in Dalian. No sounds of cars or cities; just the rapids and the other occasional hiker passing by, there weren't many though.
Hiking is fun in the wilderness especially when with a hiking partner. Never hike alone.
Well off to Ontario. A whole new adventure is up ahead in a very different part of the country. Stay tuned.
