The sun sets on another amazing trip. When is the next one? Who cares, it is too soon.

Hiking is so different than running or walking or cycling. Your fingers cramp, you fear for life more than you enjoy what you are doing at times, and you fight mental and physically urges to not look down.
Then you reach the top, take a huge breath and say only one thing, “wow.” Almost everyone can’t say anything more than “wow.” I have hiked with plenty of people and this is the most used word, besides the occasional “whoa.” Maybe it is the lack of oxygen, or the hiking high, but in unison all that is said is “wow.”
Find your wow moment today, and I guarantee you it is not indoors.
