I’ve been hiking pretty much my entire life. It takes determination and mental as well as physical strength to go hiking for days. I love that sense of pride and achievement when you reach the final peak, your final goal. There’s just something so inspiring about standing at the top of a mountain. I had the opportunity to […]
