Let us roll all our strength

cold on purpose? Why would I pay to strap a sled to my feet and do crazy things? All of these questions and more went through my head while I was driving a group of Aussie friends up to Cypress Mountain in Vancouver, BC where I was planning to go snowshoeing and take photos. When we arrived at the mountain the sky started dumping snow, something it wasn’t’ doing when we started off from the city.

with dry, coarse sand and the dust filled air makes breathing a torrid time. Gazing at the sun crawling over the mountain is pleasant, but the image fades with the sound of engines roaring and Marines scurrying back and forth. Mauna Kea towers over us across Saddle Road with its liveliness disappearing the further it climbs. The terrain is rough, even for myself at the base of the mountain with lava rocks shifting underneath my feet making it difficult to walk. As the dust settles, my mouth is still
