Photo Of The Day – My Favorite Part Of A Hike

Trail in the woods

Title: My Favorite Part Of A Hike

Location: Oregon, USA, North America

Description: This is one of my favorite views in all of the world.

A green forest.

Slightly overcast skies (= cool temps).

A empty trail.

And just enough of a rise in the trail to coax me on, wondering what is left to be discovered.
