Canadian Rockies
 

Here's some pics I took this weekend camping in Alberta near Kananaskis.

The last one is a buddy of mine running out of the [FREEZING] water after doing a polarbear swim for $20. ;)

Tons of wildlife on the highway, too. Saw mountain sheep, elk, deer, and wolves. :D

Some more...

And the last of em...

What's up with those wheels? The scenery is awesome bud!

I like the pic of the rams.

Yeah those are my winter tires with steel rims :D They definitely don't do the car justice...

Can't wait for the stocks to go back on in a couple weeks!

Awesome pictures KHTM, its cool to see an 8 not in a tropical climate for a change. Wheels actually look decent too.

Nice pics buddy. I see you didn't turn off DSC this time, otherwise there would be a pic of a ram head butting your 8.

Excellent khtm...I'd give my left nut for a drive like that through the rockies in my 8 on such a beautiful day :)

Camping now?? That's nuts!! Nice pix.. but those steelies have got to go! I've put my summers on for a month already! hehe..

Nice Ghetto rims! :D

Nice shots!

I actually *bought* decent looking rims for my Winter tires... turns out we don't get much snow here though....

nobody asked, so what's the deal with the guy in his skibbies running through the water. Bizarre, is that you, looks cold.

Hey guys, thanks for the comments!

BlueEyes, I explained it in my first post :) And yep, that water was really cold. You can't see it from that shot, but there was ice floating about 20 ft away.

hmmm, so you did. I was distracted by the pictures and never got that far. Doh :o

Apparently KHTM is "into" riding around in the back mountains with guys w/ wet underwear....I hear a banjo playing! :D

^ BURRRRRN!! :eek:

And I wasn't just with guys with wet underwear. There were sheep, deer, elk, wolves, and squirrels too! :p

nice shots !

You might start a new trend - steel wheels! Gives a nice ruggedness to match the mountain scenery.

more like ...gives a nice redneck touch to match the scenery :D

Damn, I was supposed to have been at a conference in Banff this week. :(

I've always driven those roads in a rented SUV; the 8 would be totally change the ride.

Squeal like an elk, boy!

What in the world?!! Who's that running.... I remember going to vancouver and people were swimming when the weather was 50's you could imagine how the water was like.

Beautiful place....but perhaps the ugliest 8 in North America!

^^^ ha ha .. don't make fun of the poor elk boy. You should have seen his 8 with his battle damaged rear bumper/exhaust.

Yeah, you just hurt her feelings...JERK! :D
