On the drive from Calgary to Vancouver with all my stuff, Brian and I were discussing how some places get really cool names, but when you find out the story behind them it's really quite plain. Dead Man's Flats east of Canmore was what spurred our discussion.
However, there's a trail on Burnaby Mountain called Cardiac Hill that is completely deserving of it's name. Holy crap is that trail steep. I "ran" up it today, and tried not to run down it. It's hard to go down. There are actually little branches off the trail that work as run-away lanes like for trucks on the highway.
That run caused a nap this afternoon.
