Mountain Sprints Club

September 4th, 2011
Team Kananaskis Mountains Kevin Jagger Long Track Long Shot Speed Skating Amateur Athlete Canada Blog

Saturday called for another day hike in Kananaskis Country. To switch things up from hiking Pocaterra Ridge the past two weeks (videos here and here) we went a little deeper in and hiked Mist Creek.
