I Took The Path Less Traveled By: Kootenai Brown Bike Trail July 19, 2016

*I hope people use their own wise judgement when hiking always plan ahead and be prepared. One should never go beyond their abilities.*

Over the years I've had a few goals my first was to Summit all the Peaks of Waterton. Here is My Waterton Summit List I completed that goal on September 26, 2016.

My next goal I'm still working on and that is to summit the 6 10,000 foot Summmits of Glacier National Park. I have one left Kintla.

My 2018 Goal that I accomplished was to summit 40 peaks in my 40th year and that I finished on September 26, 2018.

Not sure what will be my next goal, once Glacier's Summits are done?

I commonly use 3 Hashtags on my social media. The first one is #itookthepathlesstraveledby which is to reference this blog. The next two relate to my father and grandfather who were also hikers. #milesformarkellingson is to remember my

Dad, Mark Ellingson and #dustfromthetrailandhowitsettledonme is to remember my Grandfather Earl Ellingson

Kootenai Brown Bike Trail July 19, 2016

A few years back Parks Canada made this biking trail from the park entrance to the town site and for years I had driven past this trail and had always wanted to bike it. Well this was the time. I took my three oldest kids and went out one afternoon and completed the trip. It was a nice little ride and wasn't too hard. My one boy had a bit of a hard time but he will survive.
