Went up the Hudson and hiked “Anthony’s nose” (great name). love a good medium level hike — a decent feat but not going to make me yell at my boyfriend on the way up . It was my first time doing a snowy hike. Absolutely beautiful, nothing like crunching the snow with your boots. At the top we rewarded ourselves with some Chex mix and gatorade. A guy near us smoked a joint and I felt envious of his lungs. reminded me I should’ve brought my inhalor.
this is my first post here so I hope I’m doing it right… but I went on a hike today and was reminded of how much fun they are!! also I am now very pro-winter hikes, because you aren’t nearly as hot during them. I thought it’d be too cold to be enjoyable, but it was surprisingly nice out. perfect PNW weather🌲🌥️🥾
If I got nothing going on and it's nice out in the summer or early/mid fall, there's a pretty good chance I'm going on a hike. It feels good to get tf away from a lot of the noise and bs, and to instead touch grass, take in nature, and be present with your surroundings as well as yourself. I love solo hikes but I also enjoy going with a close friend or two for some company.
And ofc I enjoy the exercise and challenge/accomplishment! It's pretty sick when you're doing a loop trail and you look back mid-hike to be like "damn I did all that!" The endorphins are flowing, I feel good, and nothing hits like a nice meal and a beer after a hike.
I'm also biased having lived close to the White Mountains my whole life lol
Deleted Twitter today and then was like hey why don’t I delete TikTok too. So far so good. kind of feels like I cut out junk food. Less brain rot and eye strain happening over here. (unfortunately instagram feels too real to part with I don’t know why. but maybe one day...)
