Summiting The South Sister









One of the things that I really wanted to do before the summer was up was hike South Sister. It is a beautiful and very long hike. Once you get to the top the whole hike is worth it. Any pain you might have been feeling just disappears when you get to the top and see the view. Every minuet of the hike just takes your breath away because of the beauty surrounding you.
John and I decided to hike it and the day we picked was so perfect. There was no wind and it was an ideal temperature. We hiked the whole thing in one layer and only put our shells on for a few minuets at the top. Going with John made it even more fun. He knows all of the technical information about everything surrounding us. I think one day I need to write out all that he has taught me. It would fill a book for sure. 
At the end of the hike I was really tiered but, it was worth it. I spent a beautiful day with a man that always puts a smile on my face, in one of the most stunning places on earth.
