JustPlainPetrified Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Trip to N. Alberta last fall. Beautiful area. Only spent a short time as companion lost the soles on both his old boots. Great colours in this ammonite beaudanticeras. 1 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, with the terrain, we had to start back in basically stocking feet. Slow but necessary. Likely never get back there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We crossed a shallow river 5 times to get to the honey hole and on the last crossing the soles on the 40 year old boots just parted ways. I had to make the crossings back to get our stashed gear while my partner gingerly made his way along a rocky shore and eventually I got back to him with extra footwear. Good times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
