Many readers knew that I had planned to hike the Berg Lake Trail with my family. This picture of Kinney Lake, shows the low level of fog and mist that we experienced - hence, no heli ride to the top of the trail. We walked the Overlander Falls Trail instead and then took Mum and Dad out for their 66th wedding anniversary, celebrating in Valemont. The next day (the day of the photo) we opted to hike half of the Berg Lake Trail so that we could do 24 km and see much of the area. We had mixed weather conditions and a perfect temperature for hiking. The day had its own share of adventures, but we did all get to White Falls (at about km 12) and my 88-year old Dad didn't blink at the length of the journey. My next plan for him is Monica Meadows, one of the nicest hikes in the Koots. Another good thing about this road trip was getting reacquainted with Wells Gray, where a new hiking friend took us up Trophy Mountain and the largest mountain meadow I've ever seen.
