Mount Edith Cavell

Yesterday, David and Tricia left to continue their journey toward Vancouver and today Grandma and Grandpa Gerhard were heading south for Radium Hot Springs and Invermere. Yesterday David and Tricia got a special send-off breakfast of French toast at Alpine Lodge and today we got one too. Lake Grandpa prepared some Cinnamon French toast and Cranberry Walnut French toast with strawberries and orange juice. It won the award for Best Camping Breakfast – ever!  AND – we got to use their fancy shower - Best Camping Shower. It was an award winning morning.





Even when we don’t have to make breakfast and clean up, the mornings seem to disappear quickly. Today, our plan was to go see Mt. Edith Cavell up close. It was a windy drive up to the trail head with lots of switchbacks and poor Evelia was not doing so well in the car, but we made it up there and had a really good hike.

On one side of the trail was Mt. Edith Cavell and the glacier lake. This was on the other side.
