Robbi and I went for an overnight adventure to 3 glacier-fed lakes. We woke up at 4:45 and forced ourselves out of the warm tent so that we could have the place to ourselves. The drive home required a lot of coffee and the bug’s breaks were definitely smoking, but we were back in the city before noon. It always feels like you’re coming back from a different world when you go from backcountry to city, but it’s a strange feeling I embrace whole-heartedly.
Took some time off to enjoy an overnight trek from Sombrio beach to Mystic beach along the Juan de fuca trail. Thanks @cristysjewelrydesigns and @rikkihiebert for the impromptu getaway!! It was great to enjoy some much needed time off in nature 🌲 ❤️ #backpacking #juandefuca #sombriobeach #bearbeach #mysticbeach #bchiking #britishcolumbia #vancouverisland #lovefornature #overnighttrek #goodtimeswithgoodpeople https://www.instagram.com/p/CPvunWoASOU/?utm_medium=tumblr

Happy Friday! Happy last day of NaNoWriMo! I’ve written 50,000 words this month including 28,000 words about the West Coast Trail but I still have a few miles of the trail to write about and #nanowrimo is not over until tonight! The writing is rubbish but I’m glad I’m putting these memories down. #havingfunwithit #forgetyourinnercritic . . . Photo📍: Unceded traditional territory of the Pacheedaht and Dididaht First Nations.

A few things i learned today about the BCMC Hike at Grouse Mountain:🙃 1.) MORE IS BETTER. Bring your friends and it makes for a more enjoyable time. Not to mention, accountability partners work! 2.) There are many really funky shortcuts or diversions all throughout but especially uptop! Swipe to check out my secret to crushing my competition 😉 3.) What the hell. Frisbee Golf? Grouse? I had no idea. Anyone have anymore info on this? It looks seriously EPIC! Anyone down to do this ? #grousemountain #bcmctrail #frisbeegolf #vanfitfam #vanft #fitnessfreak #grousegrind #bchikes #vancityhiking #vancouverpersonaltrainer #lifecoach #hikingadventure (at BCMC Trail) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1mKpILnVlo/?igshid=6rngz8htqa0m
