For all the urbanite who venture out into the #backcountry to "conquer" nature.

"_Urbanization_ is a term that is destined eventually to be deleted from our vocabulary, since no longer does it suggest a cultural polish, but more often the culturally incompetent, and physically, the grace and tactility of a cow on glare ice."

From the essay - The Wilderness Writer's Lot (page 106) of Back Country by Calvin Rutstrum

#FootpathFriday
Life is more memorable, when you take a few wilderness footpaths, along the way.

@Snowshadow I used to take my vacations in the summer, and head to Europe — then I asked myself — “Self, why the f___ are you leaving Canada during the best weather of the whole year?”. Now I take my summer vacations in Canada, and I bugger off to the far off wilderness to enjoy what my home and native land has to offer.

We stayed at a cabin out in the woods between Nederland and Blackhawk in Colorado. This Downy? woodpecker is intimidating the hummingbirds while drinking their sugarwater.

I like the dog barking and the woodpecker tweaks/dances on the feeder. 🥰😂 Big thank you to my wife for the video.

OH MY. I spend hours in the woods every day, far from the trails most people use. So this! This is amazing. I’ve got to go see if tree eyes will help me navigate through the forest.

For #WaterfallWednesday here is another view of the river below Crystal Falls. It was quite a journey to get to this wonderful spot, and you can see another shot of the actual waterfall on @stevenkennard 's post today.

The Top of Crystal Falls

For #WaterfallWednesday
This seemed to be a long walk into the bush to get to this spot, until we realized we had approached by a back route. It was well worth it, as we were the only ones there. If you want to visit, it's above Kingston. We were told to ask directions in the Tim Hortons. That worked. Sort of.😂​
