As of this writing, I have hiked 9 of the 12 trails up Mill Creek Canyon. Some I have started but not completed. It is my goal to make good on them all, even those listed as "most difficult" in the guidebook.
I hike with my flute and rattle, keeping time and startling rattlesnakes into announcing themselves with one, singing out the flow of wind melody at the summits with the other.
I usually hike alone, with something ambient or provoking on my ipod, one ear tuned in and the other tuned to the world around me. I often consider the large questions while walking.
Who are we? Why are we here? Are there other, intelligent beings just out of reach across dimensions?
I think on these things.
I rattle.
