And so began my wonderful adventure of a canoe trip along Bow River, “putting in” at Castle Mountain, running the Red Earth Creek rapids, and “taking out” at Massive Mountain, you know, where the CP rail has a “siding” there (parallel set of tracks to park a train). It was so glorious to be out on the river – “watch out for sweepers!” (trees that have fallen cross wise along the river) navigated by my friends for life, Chip and Jim Olver. I took so many photos for future work. I have shared memories that will last forever.
