British Columbia

The best place on earth? My first reaction to this was that the people over at Tourism BC are a group of arrogant blow-hards. I can now say with some authority that this claim does hold water. On earth may be hard to prove. North America? Probably. Canada? Almost certainly.

Myself and Sebastien. I think we look quite dapper, don't you?

Mountains and farmland in the Fraser Valley

This chipmunk loved powerbars.

You can't actually tell from this photo, but this was a really long, steep climb. Sebastien in the background, reaching deep into "the suitcase of courage" in attempt to make the summit.

Outstanding sheep illustration on this one. I also like how the driver is leaning forward, straining to see what he just mowed down. "What the hell was that?!?" Don't worry man. It's just an exploding ram with demonic eyeballs.

The view from Anarchist mountain above Osoyoos. This climb was nutty. Tons of switchbacks and steep grades. I felt like a champ once this one was completed.

A dam on Kootenay river. They have lots of hydro electric dams along the Kootenay. This one was the largest, me thinks. Quite impressive.

Mountains on Kootenay Lake. The Nelson area is beautiful. They have a really cool local radio station called co-op or something like that. Kind of like the CBC's spunky little brother. They were talking about humanure and playing some righteous tunes as I rode the east shore of Lake Kootenay, which only amplified what was already an awesome day. Good radio can work wonders.
