St. Mary Peak Trail, Bitterroot National Forest

Start: 89290 miles

It is a good day when the only sounds are the wind in the pines and the snow sprinkling on your head. With the conditions outside my little region covered in clouds, essentially invisible, it is like being isolated in a room of pine trees. With the wind and snow for company.
