Today we had perhaps our most ambitious TrailRider outing yet, a long slog up Mt. Work and back with Nairne in the TrailRider. To accomplish this feat required a total of seven sherpas, plus Nairne's dad Ian, who tagged along. After the event, we all went back to Ian and Nairne's for a gourmet supper prepared by Nairne's mom, Susan.
The trail up Mt. Work from the Mackenzie Bight parking lot is a long, fairly steep one, and even though Nairne barely weighs one hundred pounds, we were all huffing and puffing, and sweating like crazy. Still, we all enjoyed the outing, none more than Nairne herself. She's our best TrailRider client, bar none, having particpated in at least half a dozen TrailRider events, starting in Strathcona Park in 2002.
