    Frozen Water

    March 2, 2018 in Canada ⋅ ☁️ 0 °C

    Fabulous first day in Cranbrook,Neal took us trail walking to Mosie Falls.
    First experience wearing snow shoes, which when you get used to them really help on the deep snow.
    We took a little time to find the start of the trail but set off down the valley, passing a little gold mine on the way.
    At the bottom of the valley we walked across frozen ice, with the river flowing underneath! Then set up the path of the river.
    You could hear the water, and the sight was well worth the trek. No sound except the crashing water.
    Neal was prepared with snacks, very cold beer and even a ‘nip’ of whiskey! Tradition apparently so had to be done!
    Trek back up was more challenging, and needed a few stops to get my breath back.
    Was very warm when we got back to the car.
    Neal cooked us a great steak on his BBQ for tea, they have a big covered deck, but we are indoors!
