What a lovely story. I absolutely love the thunderous sound of silence. I spend as much time there as I can. I get at least some every day in the desert with Sam.
And what a wonderful adventure the whole walk would be. There are trails here that have 'town access' at regular intervals, and some (particularly in the mountains) that have a network of 'shelter cabins' but nothing anywhere near that formal. What a great idea.
Thanks for a great share. I really appreciate it.
Awww and you get to bring your wonderful companion with you, that's all that was missing on my walk. A trusty stead ;)
New Zealand has these titled walks kind of out of the way so they remain unscathed by our over-presence. I want to do them all one day as they all have different features but like I mentioned, you have to book far out in advance to get a spot so it's tricky.
The dessert is a whole different experience, one I miss. I love that you get time out there to experience the thunderous silence I had to use your words because I loved the imagery. ❤
