A Trail of Conversations and Connections | August 30–31: The Alicia Panoramic Park (8-Hour Circuit Trail)
This is why the mountains always call me back. Not just for the escape and the views, but for the people, for the moments, for the journey shared. The summit may be the goal, but the trail is where the meaning is found. Equal struggles, equal joys, equal beauty. No judgment, no one above or below. Just one trail, one summit, one family, even if only for a short time.
