Alex Makes Snow Lord's Peak


Alex clambers the last steps to Snow Lord's Peak, turns around and takes in the view from the summit.

This week's Snow Lord Peak brought to you by Mount Joffre, Alberta.
'It's quite something, isn't it.' The Snow Lord steps beside him to look at the surrounding island.

'Yes, it is very beautiful.' Alex turns and extends his hand, 'Hello, my name is Alex and I'm from Russia.' 

'Pleased to meet you, Alex. What brings you up here?'

'The prize. I understand that if I successfully complete a challenge there is a reward to be had.'

'Yes, that's right.  Hmm, let's see what we can dream up.' The Snow Lord takes a moment to gaze out at the sweeping vista before them, then nods. 'Okay, I got it. I understand you enjoy making very imaginative terrain using bits you find around your house and yard, how about you make up a terrain piece that illustrates Challenge Island. Do you think you can do that?'

Alex whips out his hot glue gun and craft knife, 'This is no problem.'

The Snow Lord claps him on the back, 'Brilliant! Let's see what you come up with.'

Well Alex, I apologize in advance to your wife and children for what is about to occur in your household, but I do look forward to seeing what madness you create.  :)

  5. I always thought that the best humor is English, but now I understand that Canadian humor is more subtle and more ironic! this is a serious challenge, and I will work with maximum strength for the glory of the snow lord!
