A Beautiful Day

Today was another beautiful day: http://finiansworld.blogspot.com/2008/09/hollyburn-ridge.html

I was just going to climb Dam Mountain because I was short on time but since it was such a beautiful day I went on to Goat Ridge.

Today was one of those days I didn’t want to come back down. I have a friend who said to me once after talking about some of the hikes and snowshoe climbs I’ve been on lately "You do have to come back down you know." That had never really been a problem. I like the short day hikes, get a great view then back to the grind of the real world.

However, today I really didn’t want to come down. After enjoying the silence of the trail for a while I hit the peak on Goat Ridge and heard and saw a few hikers relaxing as they were talking and soaking up the sun. Now that’s what I’m talking about. I found a quiet spot and did just that: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=Px33rg0DT-w&feature=related
