A hike

Today, Jesse, Stephen, and myself had a blast. Early this morning, at about 6:00, we drove to Kananaskis for a hike. I admit that it didn't seem like pleasant circumstances to hike in as once we got about an hour out of Calgary it was simply pouring. But once we arrived at our destination, a hiking trail called 'powderface', it seemed to clear up a lot. We didn't really want to risk going on a long hike and then having the clouds just pour on us, so we first decided to visit Elbow falls.

It was really beautiful. Early in the morning, gray weather, nobody around. It was awesome. We ended up wandering around for close to an hour, having a blast. Despite a certain tendancy a certain member of our party could not seem to avoid. Trees can hold massive amounts of water on their leaves.

Then we went on the trail, and made about a third of the way before we turned around. Finally, we took a look at some of the pictures that Jesse took, and low and behold, Jesse had actually taken some portraits that both Stephen and I liked! (Not saying he's bad at portraits. It's just that both Stephen and myself consider ourselves as un-photogenic.)
