A Weekend Vacation

Geoff and I had a weekend getaway. It's been 2 years since we've been camping and so we decided that while Katie visited Grandma and Grandpa we would check out Wells Gray Park. If you've never been there, you really should check it out! (I mean, ummm, the bugs were terrible)

The canyon from Spahats Falls leading to the Clearwater River.

Me in front of Spahats Falls (this is the first of many wheel chair accessible water falls in the park)

Helmken Falls, second longest falls in Canada, also wheel chair accessible - we had to do the tourist things too!
A lovely evening and a little bit away from where the bus tours were getting to.

We rented a canoe and hit Clearwater Lake on Saturday. We kept trying to figure out where everyone else was.

The only action shot of the weekend! Still no one in site. And glassy calm water.

Our campsite for the night - yes sandy beach, cut firewood, fire ring (by the campsite), picnic table, extremely bear-safe food cache, and a clean outhouse. For backcountry this was luxury!

Still trying to figure out where everyone else is.

Mount Garnet in the background - Geoff has set his sights on that.

Back at camp for dinner - our camp stove broke so we are cooking over the fire!

A wonderful calm morning on the lake.

On the way out. Another gorgeous campground on the lake. We did see about 3 motor boats and 6 canoes on Sunday.

But, it's a big lake.
