One of the holy grail dream hikes…
Finally checked it out.
20 miles of mountain terrain. 5,000+ ft elevation gain, 18 hours of grinding and moving forward since 4:30am. Once you’ve started, there’s no turning back - only forward.
Sooo worth it.
Some places reward the effort. This one rewires you. It doesn’t just show you beauty - it reminds you what you’re capable of when you keep putting one foot in front of the other long after your legs say stop.
The Enchantments don’t just give you the views - you earn them. Every step, every lake, every ridge is a conversation. That’s why we go to the mountains: to stand face to face with something larger than ourselves, to strip away everything that doesn’t matter, and find what does.
Fire needs fuel. Passion needs action. You can feel the pull toward the mountains, feel that burning desire to explore and adventure, but nothing reignites that burning until you actually go… Until you’re grinding. Until you’re there. That’s when it hits - the moment you remember exactly why you came.
The mountains are my temple. This weekend they reminded me exactly why.
Grateful, humbled, and endlessly inspired.
