August 14-16, 2014
We took the list of great opportunities from this beautiful area and put together our summer camp. Our main activities were to hike to the top of Turtle Mountain and then tackle Star falls the next day. We had lots of other fun interesting filler activities as well.
We stayed at the Chinook Lake camp ground. It's just west of Coleman. Real nice place with a beach on the lake and a trail all around the lake that's just as pretty as Lake Louis, just less people.

| Day One | |||
We started off the trip with a bit of rain. |
It started to lighten up a bit and then we could start to make out images
on the road. |
There, you can see the pavement lines finally. |
When we got into the Crows Nest area we were driving beside clouds,
through clouds and above clouds. |
Duke & Taysen had planned for baked potatoes and corn on the cob. All
nicely wrapping in individual servings and kept warm in thermal cooler
packed with towels and sleeping bags. |
Nothing like a nice hot meal when it's totally dark, but at least your tent is all
setup. Oh, these are definitely better with Catsup? |
Want to see me chew off the kernels without holding the cob! |
I only look tired. It will be while before I really fall asleep. |
| 2 8-man tents were setup, 1 leader tent between them. | Only one tent succeeded in their attempt to get some sleep. And it wasn't the leader tent. |
