Most of the time we were completely alone. It made for a very interesting vibe. Being so small on the immensity of this mountain and the wide expanse of the panorama was humbling..... and super deluxe!
The grass was in full green, and thousands of yellow flowers lay over the mountain side like a colorful blanket. We literally saw it and started running fast to get to it. Looking down from it to the value took my breath away. Small shallow cabin dwellings dotted the landscape. They were designed to not stand out and disrupt the natural landscape. We spent hours up there and slowly realized we needed to head back down before night fall.
I remember thinking that it would be actually not be that surprising if we had run into some hobbits walking down the path. It had so many of the romance and mystical characteristics of a wonderful fantasy story.
This particular precipice was very special. It took my breath away wandering around and going up to the top to look over into the deep valley below.
We ran into some wonderful people that just happened to be staying at one of these cabins and they were so nice. They gave us water and then offered us some of their own "stilled" alcoholic beverage. If I ever were going to smidge and take a sip it would have been there and then, but I chickened out and passed. I probably would have gagged myself silly otherwise.
It was the one of the most beautiful places I have been from a mountain scape point of view. I will never forget the solace, the peace, the greeness and the view.
Imagine skiing down these slopes in the winter....!!
I wont forget how spiritual it was and the many miles of mind wandering and wondering there were.
I couldn't walk the next day, but it was worth it!
