Floe Lake - Numa Pass Trail
Snaking through a once burned forest, I realized life is so fragile. But every disaster also brings new lives & hopes. Truly success is measured by the quality of rebounds.
From the Floe Lake to Numa Peak, beauty & magic came to life. Peace & tranquility brought me strength, joy and freedom. The wind hugged & whispered at my ears, saying "Welcome to Numa Summit. Some times during this one-day-53km hike & scramble, my mind started to wander into thin air. Streams of thoughts, memories, & ideas poured out just like torrential rains. As darkness sank, exhaustion kicked in. My limps & breaths synchronized. My feet cruised with ease & quick pace as if I got eyes on my toes. I was alone, but no. It’s me against nature! Nothing else mattered!
After 15hrs & 45mins, I got back to my car. The sense of satisfaction just couldn't be put into words. Sadly, all good things must come to an end. As I cleaned my sweat, I also wiped my tears, for I left my heart behind a sacred beauty of wilderness.
