Between my work schedule and the weird weather around here (no snow, then extreme cold), snowshoeing isn’t really happening this year. My hubby and I have managed one trip so far, in January. Due to the huge avalanche risk nearly everywhere on our side of the Rockies at the time, we headed for a safe place: the first few kilometers of Wintour, in Kananaskis Country. In the couple of hours we were out there, we heard the thundering crack of EIGHT avalanches in the peaks several kilometers west and east of us. That gives you a bit of an idea of just how risky it would have been to head out into the backcountry that day!
How alarming. I am glad you had a safe and enjoyable time.
Pretty scary
What a beautiful view. I’m glad you knew to stay away from the dangerous area. An avalanche must be very scary.
A stunning view Sheryl.
Prachtig beeld en gelukkig zijn julli verstandige mensen die geen risico nemen en kiezen voor veiligheid want lawine zijn echte moordenaars
Stunning view is right, but so glad you stayed away from the avalanche area.
That’s a glorious photo! Avalanches are about as terrifying as anything I can imagine . . .
Such a beautiful photograph! I am glad you and your husband stayed safe.
