I will let the pictures tell the story for the most part. It was a pristine day to hike today in stark contrast to yesterday's grey skies, wind and rain. A light dusting of snow was a clean white backdrop for the colours of autumn. When I checked our route map this morning I was under the impression (misguided) that our hike would be mostly flat. Instead we were treated to many ups and downs through the valley. It was a bit tricky in parts due to the slushy snow on top of wet leaves.
The beauty on the trail left me in awe. I walked silently for the most part, taking in as many of the sights, sounds and scents of the forest as I could drink in (a much needed forest fix). I was happy to be out with my friends, listening to their chatter, the sounds of our footsteps in the slushy snow, sun on my face, fresh air in my lungs, worries fading. Bliss.
3 Happy Hikers
