YOU CAN’T SEE IT FROM HERE

I run mountain trails. Well, I run them when I’m home in Colorado and when I am home my schedule is to run the trails every other day for an hour or an hour-and-a-half. Now recently in July, on our day off during NSTT, I had the privilege of taking five of the guys up on the mountain trails here in Western Colorado. After about an hour of running we arrived at a peak that we could see from the trail head at the parking lot. That’s when we got off the trail and hiked to the peak of that peak. The panoramic view was pretty incredible.

Back on the trail, Ricard from Sweden asked about the trail that continued going up. We were at the foot of another steep climb and I said that it would take us another hour to continue if we wanted to get to the top.

“But you can’t see it from here. In fact, when you get to that next rise,” I said pointing to the steep before us, “you can’t even see if from there. In fact, at the top of the next three peaks, you still can’t see it.”
