Great fun today crossing the Canadian Lake Windemere at Invermere British Columbia.
The lake can be used in the winter when it freezes to get to other villages that would take longer to reach by road or would not be accessible by road in the summer.
The lake is also home to the www.tobycreeknordic.ca and that is the Toby Creek Nordic ski club and i spoke with Trail representative Joe Hildes who tells me that the 15klm trail for skaters and skiers is the largest of its kind in the world, but that has still to be officially confirmed.
I did a talk today at the Open Doors Rocky mountain school which is an alternative school in Invermere,
A really good bunch of kids with enthusaism for life, I want to thank Christine and Robin for letting me speak at their school.
RamblingRat Expedition use’s Puncture safe Gel inside the vehicle tires on our expedition vehicle, it prevents punctures and prolongs the life of the tires. Having travelling from the Uk and covering nine countreis we are using the same tires that we left with. Also the tires have been studded twice with snow studs and the car found itself in a ditch and a huge hole in Russia that broke the front axle, and have had temperature differences from plus 43oC to -50oC and are still rolling.
Thank you to Dave Matthew’s for being a RamblingRat sponsor. www.pro-edge.co.uk

I’m VERY happy to see you’ve made it across the lake in one piece! I was worried, but it looks like a cool place, and beautiful as always… yes, Beautiful BC! I think I am just a ‘little’ biased, eh?
Lucky you!
