Finally a bumper berry crop after two consecutive years of disappointing yields pulled Dan, Angie, her Mom and I onto Baldy's slopes to fill any available vessel with my personal favourite, Saskatoon berries.
A mere hour of picking yielded 4.5 liters destined for the freezer for future baking and breakfast projects.
I've spotted an orange oat Saskatoon berry muffins recipe that I'm keen to to try these days off.
Dan's parents popped up for the August Long weekend for a northern visit. BBQs lasted long into the night as friends new, and newly old dropped by for a beer, burger or a twilight giggle. Popping in to Bulter Ridge Provincial Park hopping to cruise up to its namesake ridge for views of Williston Reservoir and surrounding Rocky Mountains, we spent the entire time in the trees along ATV trails catching up and marveling at nature's wonders.
My own mother will be visiting the north next month as I wave farewell to a summer job I've been keen to see in the rearview mirror since July.

Clearly accustomed to the Ruiters' new Edge, Wednesday was at ease in the trunk after an afternoon jaunt into the woods. We were easily able to persuade her out in to the car.
