About this episode
Rob Porter continues his hike along the Elk Pass Trail, observing various bird species in a cooler climate.
I’m continuing my hike along the Elk Pass Trail in Kananaskis Country, close to BC border. It’s a quieter and cooler climate than I’m used to, but the crossbills, wrens, thrushes and more don’t seem to mind the weather.
