Contributor Bio(s): Shea, Gerry: - Gerry Shea moved to Kamloops from Vancouver at the age of 9, which is when he became enchanted by the nearby hills. It was on a family vacation many years later that he discovered the mountains and began hiking and climbing in his spare time, gathering knowledge and experience that he has since used to help beginning hikers, scramblers and backpackers to trek safely. Gerry and his wife, Debbie, live in Kamloops, and he continues to hike throughout the hills and mountains of BC and Alberta. |
