OCTOBER 11 ROADTRIP

 Since the forecast looked promising we went for another road trip on Monday.  This trip was through the mountains from Summerland to Princeton mostly following the route of the Kettle Valley Railway that ran through here many years ago.  The old railbed is a multiuse trail these days and for much of it ATVs are permitted.  As usual, I combined photography with geocaching and picked up eight caches along the way.  The total round trip was 260 kms/162 miles and took us seven hours.  Only 40 odd kms are gravel but with the washboard and mud, it was slow going.


The first hints of winter are upon us

We had lunch here and sat in the sun and it was quite comfortable as there was no wind.  It was 2C/36F.
