The Art of Hiking

The Art of Hiking

Have you ever been so at peace with where you are; both in the literal sense and the metaphorical sense. Take a moment and imagine the sights, sounds, and smells around you as you sit under a juniper tree nestled atop a red sand rock bluff; overlooking miles and miles of scenic beauty and freedom.

The temperature is perfect and the blue skies make the fluffy white clouds seem soft and within arms reach. The gentle winds bring the scent of juniper berry close; taking in a drink of fresh, cool, clear spring water.

Pure satisfaction!

You stand up, stretch your arms above you, reaching from side to side, inhaling in, the fresh juniper air, looking, optimistically, towards the dreamy skies and the privileged clouds.

The trail is calling your name. You lean forward, lace up your hiking boots, and venture on, towards the open landscapes of limitlessness, breath, and life.
