The long way to the lake

The long way to the lake

There is a path from the campsite that most people miss. It leaves behind the gravel road, slips between the fir trees, and arrives at the lake just as the first light touches the water.

Take the slow route, notice what is growing at the edge of the path, and let the day unfold without trying to improve it. We’ll keep the kettle on when you get back.
