Story
The mountain sheep are known to ‘accidentally’ kick rocks from above, so it’s always a good idea to wear a helmet.
You’ve always got to make sure your backpack with your food is closed up, or these brave little chipmunks will find a way in there.
Once we found a free spot on the wall to climb, we started getting ready.

Brilliant shots. My favourite has to be the squirrel ๐
Awesome pictures! I have to agree with you about the squirrel. As much as I love to hike, I can never picture myself in some of these places. I think I would faint. Lol!
That looks like fun. Beautiful photographs. How lovely to be so close to nature and become a part of the landscape like that. Thank you for sharing, I love to see people really embracing nature and adventure and living their dreams. <3
I wouldn’t care to join you, but I do enjoy seeing your photos of your adventures, and fellow adventurers!
Great shots – feel like I was climbing up that rock face as well.
But the squirrel is kinda cute too.
