Time with daughter + aerobics workout = priceless!

Dude it was awesome. My girl is a 4 star junior athlete, she's a gymnast & swimmer, but this was her first time in the mountains. We went up a small peak and got pretty high, basically to the snow line, and she didn't slow down even a little the whole way.

Thanks Kenpo! Not a huge mountain but still, a mountain. Here is a pic of the peak from the parking lot.

Invalid Link Removed

Wow! Beautiful! Did you hike it to the snow line or above?
 
Hey Kenpo. We went to the top. No snow up there though, it was really hot! Record setting heat actually; 31 C, about 88 F. I was hiking around up there with my daughter about 5 weeks ago though, and there was still snow at that time.

This is Mt. Yamnuska. It's a front ranges peak, you can see directly out on to the prairie from the top. So it's not very big, at least not by Rockies standards. The main range peaks further in are much bigger, and lots are glaciated, so they're snow covered year round. The main attraction on Yamnuska is actually the cliff face. It's host to a couple hundred rock climbing routes, really the crown jewel of Canadian climbing. We were just hiking around on the back side. In the past the back side was primarily used for climber's descent routes, but in recent years it's become extremely popular as a hiking/scramble outing.

Just in case you're wondering, yes I have climbed some of the rock routes on the front of Yamnuska. 5 in total I think, plus a couple sport climbs on the east end.

My daughter at the snow line 5 weeks ago.

Scrambling on the backside on Sunday. My sister Jen, standing, and our scramble partner Maryanne, descending.

What a great time! Your daughter is beautiful! The climbing is quite the cardio workout, especially in that kind of heat. Thank you for sharing!

Notes: Ok workout. I just started physiotherapy for my shoulder, so no benching to speak of for the time being. Competing at PL in August is out, but that's ok, I have some mountaineering outings planned for the summer and as it turns out training for that is pretty significant. So I will adjust my PL training to accommodate circumstances, and accordingly, set my sights on competing next November.
 
Turning lemons into lemonade. When it comes down to it, mountaineering is better than benching! Wait! What!
