Frost Tipped Pines
Seriously beautiful. Neither Brit or I had ever been this high up in elevation and it was really quite stunning to be surrounded by all of this winter wonderland scenery. To be honest it made me a little homesick - at heart I am in love with winter in Traverse. Though cruely cold at times, there is something primortaily magical about trekking in the woods in high winter with everything still and quiet -by yourself or with a close friend - wandering around and truly SEEING Nature. In all the other seasons there's so much going on it's rather distracting. In winter you're forced to really LOOK. Everything is stripped bare, activity level amoug animals and plant life (and your life) is slowed down. You are forced to confront this beauty, breath it in, close your eyes, and feel blessed for being alive. Yeah.
