Our jaws dropped as we approached the summit and saw just how truly spectacular the undercast was. An ocean of clouds spread out across the landscape all the way to the horizon. In the distance, we could make out some of the 4,000 footers in Vermont – Camel’s Hump and Mt. Mansfield. That took us back to our section hikes of the Long Trail this past summer.
We layered up and spent a while enjoying the most spectacular undercast we’ve ever witnessed. It truly felt like a gift from the mountains that day – one that we sorely needed too. The mountains have provided us with so much solace in these difficult times amid a global pandemic. I really can’t overstate how spiritually filled we are by our time outdoors. As we sat there awestruck, I reflected on my gratitude for this moment and the profound peace that it was bringing me.
