Squeezing out each drop of sunshine

And another gorgeous weekend - how can we be so lucky? There is a crispness to the air, but the sun warms the skin and inspires another day outside.


Today we hopped in the car and headed up to Mount Seymour for a hike.


Unlike our hike up the Grouse Grind a couple of weeks ago (where every single step is uphill, there are very few views through the dense forest, and the reward comes only at the end with views at the summit and the satisfaction of completing the hike), Mount Seymour is a pleasant hike start to finish.


You get up into the sub-alpine very quickly, letting you soak up the views practically all of the way up, and there are several mini-summits where you can stop for fika and water breaks.


We may have a few more sunny weekends ahead of us, but there won't be too many more where the trails aren't covered in snow, and it's great to get out while we can.
