TransRockies (Stage 2)

Ok, so I know that I’ve just put up day 1, but I’m taking full advantage of a cafe with wireless whilst I can find one! It’s called the Smoking Water Coffee Co, I guess because the hot spring up the road makes all the streams smoke!

I left Darren and Jackie at the start line and made a mad dash to the coffee bar. Topped up with 4 apple pies for Jackie, 4 battery charges for me, a VERY large latte and some free Internet access. I left just in time to follow them up the road for 100m, before I sped off up the mountain to get some photos. I’ve just updated the album with photos from the stage 1 start & finish and the hill climb today: http://www.dustyfish.com/photography/2008-08-08-darren-and-jackies-transrockies You can also see the route I’ve taken: http://www.dustyfish.com/photography/2008-08-08-darren-and-jackies-transrockies/map Here’s a few highlights so far:

(17:23 – 100m from the end!)

(My impressive campsite cooking, and our neighbours! Can you guess who’s is who?) That’s it for now, hopefully there will be more….
