Fire and Ice

The theme for Roadtrip 2017 is officially Fire and Ice.

Fire:

  • Wildfires (avoided)
  • Semi-Truck Fire (watched)
  • Hot-springs (soaked in)
  • Sunburns (Seriously, how often do I have to re-apply and why don’t car windows have SPF protection?)

Ice:

  • 18 degree plunge pool at Miette Hot Springs (The kids would not be dissuaded and I’m a sucker.)
  • Columbia Icefield (literally and figuratively cool)
  • Snowball fights in July (actually ice-ball fights…from an old avalanche)

Setting up this shot was fun…and a bit painful, but real art comes with pain right?. PS, the overcast sky is smoke from a nearish forest fire. “No kids, we’re perfectly fine. That fire’s a long way away. Let’s stop and climb an avalanche.” (Not sure if I’m completely irresponsible or the best auntie ever.)
