Finished a massive 8.6 mile hike with my friend Garafano up Mount Lafaytte. We decided we would go up into the white mountains without any plans and hike whatever random trail we pull into. Coincidentally chose one of the hardest ones. Took about 5 hours. Actually wasn’t too bad, but stepped in mud about halfway through and bruised my feet up a bit. Feet looked disgusting at the end.
Overall the hike was fun, but I have recently began to really lose interest in being in nature for the sake of it. I used to want to do massive hikes and make that my priority, but like all hobbies it eventually gets stale and kinda weird when you put too much focus on it.
