Avalanche!

In the afternoon that lightweight Richard Miller and that other lightweigh Alun Jones declined another walk (there was rugby on tv), but us Brabys and ex-Brabys are made of sterner stuff. So Carolyn and I drove up a very winding road to the foot of the Angel Glacier and did a walk around there. It was spectacular, but unfortunately quite busy.

While we were there, there were several small avalanches of snow off the glacier and the mountain. They made a huge noise though, even from some distance, which makes you realise how terrifying it must be to get caught in one.

We had a slap up meal in Andy's Bistro in Jasper in the evening (highly recommended) and then Richard and I departed Sunday morning to head back to everyday life in Edmonton, and Carolyn and Alun headed off for the rest of their holiday in Golden, Vancouver and Seattle.

However, I'm back in Jasper this Friday as my friend Ann and her boyfriend are over for a vacation and I'm meeting them in the mountains and bringing them back to Edmonton. It's all go, go, go.
