A misty mountain walk

We went on a short hike today in Arctic Valley near the military bases.  We are always excited about a chance to use our snazzy backpack.  :)  It was decently sunny near our little cottage home, but as we labored up to the mountains in my faithful Ford Contour, we realized we would be hiking into thick clouds.  There is something quiet and enchanting about misty walks, so we looked forward to our little adventure.  

       Heading into the mist

Such scenes always remind me of the movie "Brigadoon"...a village appears out of the mists once every 100 years.  We didn't encounter any magical, singing folk, but we DID meet a family of six hauling their kids up the mountainside in a Radio Flyer wagon!  Wish we had a picture of that!  :)   

The day was rounded off nicely with a bike ride and a cozy fire in our little cottage.
