Weather

Weather is such a huge factor in how we explore play. In fact, ultimately it can determine whether or not the risks in an adventure-type sport results in life or death. The biggest risk I'm facing today is wrist cramps from marking papers and exams but I have been in situations outdoors that were definitely impacted by unfavorable weather. I've led countless trips in the backcountry over the past ten years and I'm always amazed how whether it is raining or sunny affects people's attitudes. I once backpacked the Mantario Trail in three and a half days and it rained 75% of the time! The periods of sunshine we had we traveled much more efficiently and actually communicated with one another encouragement! We've had some amazing weather for this time of year here in Manitoba. And so my expectation is that we will enjoy the outdoors more at the variety of family gatherings I'll be attending with my wife and daughters.
