A few days ago I was visiting my parents on the edge of Canada and headed out for what was supposed to be a snowshoeing trip to some local falls — I anticipated breaking new trail out to the river like I’ve done in years past, enjoying the pristine wilderness alone.  Instead I discovered the trail not only broken, but so well-trod I didn’t need the snowshoes.  What’s more, my solitude was not to be; numerous people had had the same idea.

So instead I had an exhilarating hike in a gorgeous spot.  Here are a couple of the numerous pictures I got by iPhone.
