On top of the world

Two years after my last conquest of Bears Hump at Waterton National Park, my sister and family ventured to do it again on August 5. This time, however, was a physical challenge. But slow and steady, I made it to the summit to enjoy the spendid panorama of the mountain majesty stretching for miles. Over the years I have taken photos of family and friends doing the pose on the edge of the cliff, with the wind blowing not quite strong enough to blow them over. This time it was my turn to stand for a few seconds with heart pounding, a smile and victory stance.
