Sorcerer Lake Lodge

Just back from Sorcerer Lake Lodge where Brenda and I spent a week with the old crew from back east. It was simply a wonderful trip -- the weather was perfect, the snow was plentiful, and the company second to none. It was so good to see all of our old friends again and it was really hard to leave them when it came time to say goodbye at the end. We're already looking forward to next year's trip in 2008 and are hoping to return to Sorcerer again in 2009.

The following four photos are panoramas made by taking several photos and stitching them together using software called Autostitch.

    hi pat,

    i think we have an "in" for sorcerer in 2009. we're still working on securing a hut for 2008. apparently GAH still allows self-guided trips so that could be an option. suggestions are most welcome. i wonder if any of your buddies in calgary might have some ideas where we could make a self-guided and self-catered trip?

    I will send out an email and see what i get back. since they all work in the oil industry (or is it because they are all parents) i don't usually hear back from them very quickly.

    more snow on the way here, i am going running :(
