This week, listen in on a relaxing hike through remote wilderness amongst the satisfying sound of footsteps in fresh snow. The air is crisp and cold with an intermittent breeze. A recently passed snow storm has blanketed the forest white in every direction. Each step yields a pleasing crunch as the pristine snow softly packs beneath shoe soles. A periodic pause makes way for the calls of birds that echo through the bare branches. Some would be quick to point out that this snow is perfect for making snowballs, but there's not another soul for miles. 44.22240, -90.56128
