Mount Seymour

While bushes, trees and flowers are blooming and all signs of spring are here, I went on a hike in the snow up on Mount Seymour - actually the first time I was surrounded by snow since the winter a year ago. With my guides Johanna and Gerd I walked through the snow to the first peak, enjoying fabulous views to the snow covered mountains around and down to Vancouver. The steep parts along the four hour hike provided a good workout and lots of fun when sliding down on our bottoms on the return. You don't need expensive equipment and pay for lift tickets to experience the snow, just put on your hiking boots and bring a walking pole and you can be on top of the world (actually on top of Vancouver).
