And you are right...BC is beautiful...I really do think that I live in the most beautiful city, in the most beautiful province, in the most beautiful country, in the world!

I was wondering where it was , so I did a Google search on "Mount Doug BC". I think it came from a tourism website.

Thankyou all...

It means so much to have others understand what an accomplishment this was for me. I have told some people...but they don't seem to get it...I mean...I was the biggest couch potatoe I have ever known...And this was HUGE for me. Others think that it is not that big a deal...but they compare walking up the hill on the pavement...I do the trails...and they are tough even for people that are in shape...

I did it again today...managed to get to the top and took a different trail down...which took a lonnnnnnngggggggg time...I ended up being out there for more than 2 hours...loved it tho...

Now I guess the challenge is to get up there in better time...I think this will take a while tho.
