52, living in Banff, Alberta. Kayaking when I want to feel like a seal, gravel biking when I want to feel like a potato in a rock tumbler.

I can over to bushy because the alternative was too depressing with all of the political posts about the orange nightmare and what he’s doing to America and Americans….. I’ll go back to photography after this I promise….

So an animal so smart that it can learn language and yet we kidnap them from their families and keep them in captivity…… the human race sucks.

It’s National Winter Paddling Day on Sunday, January 19th….. it’s supposed to be a high of -19C here that day so I’m sad to say I don’t think I’ll be participating….. will have to make due with memories of winter paddles past….. like this one on Moraine Lake. I had to break ice to find open water!

Sometimes I paddle with Orca and other sea life! Not the best picture but we were a ways away and afloat at that!

If you haven’t figured it out already, I love paddling and reflections…… here’s a favourite shot of my wife paddling on Bow Lake a few years back…

It’s a tour boat……. Minniwanka is the only lake in Banff National Park that allows motorized boats and there are boat tours during the summer that go all the way to the back of the lake!

Pretty spectacular lighting this night….. Tunnel Mountain (left) and Rundle Mountain (right) reflected in Vermillion Lake with just a hint of an aurora in the sky.

Sunset over Maligne Lake, Jasper NP, Alberta… such an amazing place to kayak camp!
