I'm On The Top Of The World.....

Looking out on creation!!!
This week we played tourist in our own backyard.  It was the first day in 2 weeks that the forecast was for sun all day so we had to jump at the chance to try out the Sea to Sky Gondola.  Because of the height and the views, there is no point going if the weather is not fine. 
Both Chris and his cousin Eve are vertigo victims but they both amazingly faced their fears of looking down and up, and agreed to go over the suspension bridge once on top of the rocks!
We had not done the gondola before, which is a new addition to the sea to sky highway, and Chris and I were both impressed. Just a few kilometers north of Shannon Falls, the Gondola lift and summit offers great view of the Stawamus Chief, the2nd largest granite monolith in the world.
In comparison to the Grouse Mountain Gondola, this one has it beat!  And the trails and view points of Howe Sound are amazing!!
