It’s a strange thing to become desensitized to a place like this, but it is happening—slowly. For example, I know now to expect mountains when I unzip my tent in the morning. I am not surprised to find frost on the ground from time to time, or to see new snow above the distant tree line. Everyday I find the most beautiful place I’ve ever been. No camera can capture the view, but I am still trying.
