Scrambles
in the Canadian Rockies
A First List of Canadian Summits

Below is a list of mountains
in the Canadian Rockies that I have scrambled, so far. Please click on each mountain to read a story.
My goal was to climb/scramble/walk by fair means (no ropes) 50 peaks, mountains, or towers and although I've just reached that goal I hope that I'm just starting. This is nutrition for the spirit, where the soul is couched.
Now that I am done I set another goal, to go for 100, then 150, then 200 and so on till my bones, heart and other necessary accoutrement's age too far, or the world stops spinning.
For anyone who needs to discover how strong they are, not just physically,
scrambles are one of the best ways to do it. Along the way there may be a few gendarmes but with team work, .... or just personal strength, I know you'll get through to
the other side.
Don't forget to think about why you need to think about why you need to do this. An attachment will occur if you keep it up, and eventually you may
feel as lucky as I do, to get were you can see farther that you ever thought possible before.

dreamer whose dreams are non-utilitarian has no place in
this world. In this world the poet is anathema, the thinker
a fool, the artist an escapist, the man of vision a
criminal.
Henry Miller
1891-1980, American Author
thing of beauty is a joy for ever: Its loveliness increases;
it will never pass into nothingness; but still will keep a
bower quiet for us, and a sleep full of sweet dreams, and
health, and quiet breathing...
John Keats
1795-1821, British Poet
