One of My Favourite Trees

This fellow sits quietly beside Peninsula Road all year, going unnoticed until a morning like yesterday. The snow falls and sticks to his branches and suddenly his big chance arrives.

Rat Fink

In the 1990’s, Political Correctness reared its head and Dad’s Run was renamed Rat Fink. Dad’s run could be avoided by taking Mom’s Run which was a road around to the bottom and much easier. Some Moms took offense at this coddling and raised their voices. So the runs were renamed. I will always know this run as “Dad’s” but others now call it by a different name.

Lectures have been delivered from various locations (usually about half way down)  to those at the bottom of the run.

Rat Fink Freq

The unique pattern of the runs of Seventh Heaven on Blackcomb Mountain is across the Fitzsimmons Valley.
