Spring Fever for Hiking

/in /by

WomenHikingFryeCreekSpringtime is our favorite season. Vitality bursts forth everywhere. Kirk once said, “Spring’s such a drama queen.” It’s so true. Everything in nature vies for your attention. Birds serenade you as dawn approaches. The trees are full of buds ready to explode with color. And the sounds of the rivers, creeks, and waterfalls, what can I say? If I did say anything you couldn’t hear me anyway over the roar of the water. If you haven’t gone hiking in the spring, I highly encourage it. I’m looking forward to hiking the raw beauty of Fry Creek again. And what about Pilot Bay? The most zen of trails, maybe it’s because Kootenay Lake is never far from sight, holding calm energy. Ah yes, spring fever is in the air.

The Skinny on Mountain Trek in Mexico

/in /by

Mountain Trek in Mexico….. oh-so-nice! I don’t know where to start, or even harder, where to stop in my ravings of Mountain Trek at the Ranch:)

Kirk and I are here at Rancho La Puerta running a new Mountain Trek program. It’s a unique experience to dovetail our program inside another – one we’ve not had the pleasure of enjoying before. The usual routines of yoga, 4 1/2 hour daily hikes and an exercise class after dinner still exist, with some additions. Rancho La Puerta is so well-equiped with various gyms, therapists and renowned fitness instructors that guests can (and do) supplement their daily routines with up to 3 more hours of various classes of their own choosing. Everything from yoga to fitness to art classes are offered daily at great times.

And whilst the Ranch focuses on a la carte fitness classes, our style of hiking and our meal program are certainly new to then Ranch. The result has been as-ever exceptional weight loss, with our Mountain Trek group being reverred as the ‘hard-core’ hikers losing all the weight!

Stay tuned for more from down south………
