It has been quite a while! Going back to our seventh trail Tuesday goes back to July 24th, when we revisited the hike that first brought us together on the mountain. It was a late night and early morning, but full of quiet moments and joyful smiles.
Clad colorfully and with flamboyant unprofessionalism, we wanted to meet the level of coolness that Katie had reached previously. Suzie rocked the angry birds shorts, Zac brought the attitude in Oscar the Grouch boxers and leggings, and Devi came in blue Charlie Brown pajama shorts. Of course, Katie led us up the mountain in her Spongebob towel shorts.
We had fun by the lake doing yoga, and marveled at the expansive valley as we hiked to the peak. Passing Dream Lake and meandering up to Nymph Lake, we elicited plenty of strange looks and confused stares, but it was more than worth it.
After a rest on the crags of Nymph Lake, we journeyed back down to begin another trail- the trail passing Alberta Falls and heading towards Sky Pond and Mirror Lake. Though the weather did not permit us to finish the trail, we fell in love with the scenery once again, and explored the social trails to our hearts' content.
So much beauty and so much majesty lifted this day. My pictures can only tell half the story- the rest lies in my heart.
