Taking the packs and treking into the mountains with my man for an overnight getaway tommorow morning.
Theres something still and calming and familiar about the trees and water and stones up there that i just have to get a dose of now and then.
The team work of encouraging each other up through the mist and having no other choice but to do what we must to make it to the top and survive the night has been an amazing bonding experience.
You have to really trust someone to let them tell you what you need to put on your back before they lead you into the woods for several days in the middle of winter.
Theres a very humbling and humanizing factor to spend several days in the same close in a tent with another person and having to ask where he packed the trowel after lunch.
Its time for some dirt and moss in my sleeping bag and some bad coffe by the campfire under the trees.
