OCTOBER 15 RIDE UP IN THE HILLS SURROUNDING BURNELL LAKE IN OUR SIDE BY SIDE.

It was a gorgeous fall day with no wind and mild temperatures.  We slowly putted our way around the trails stopping often to admire the beautiful colours.  We had a fire for lunch and roasted some delicious smokies then sat enjoying the stillness of the forest.  In four and a half hours we put on just 24 kms.  I think we had two hours of actual driving time.












This is called ICM, intentional camera movement.  I did these with my phone.

ON MONDAY OCTOBER 12 WE LED SOME NEW ATV FRIENDS OVER THE MOUNTAIN FROM TWIN LAKES TO THE CAWSTON-KEREMEOS OVERLOOK.

It was a little challenging finding the route as there had been so much logging since I was there last fall.  The old trail disappeared in spots so I had to rely on my sense of direction in one place to find it.  With a totally new road system built in the last year, I was able to make it a loop trip instead of backtracking the way we had come.
