Stories from My Father
-1- My back stuck to the brown leather seat of the bus, a physical phenomenon that served as a marker of how hot the day was. Late January and the start of the school year often brought extreme, oppressive heat with it and today was no exception. The air-conditioner gave us little relief and the other students, in a vain attempt to alleviate the discomfort, stood on their seats to open the little windows just below the roof. This exposed us to dust from outside, which clung to our moist foreheads and coated my white blonde hair.

The Climb
The path in front of me disappeared amongst the bedrock. Now what? What lay ahead of me was a steep mound of loose gravel and scree that I had to cross in order to make it off this mountain safely. On my right, down below, I could see trees that looked so small it once again reminded me how elevated I was. From what I remember before attempting this hike, Mount Yamnuska was about 2,300 metres tall. The descent from the top was scary enough as it was, and now this feeling of pure fear was bubbling back up again. I was alone, with no hiking equipment, and nothing more than my backpack, fanny pack and nearly empty water bottle. Phone was sitting at 10% battery life with no reception, the sun was approaching the horizon, and I still had to make it back down to my car.
