Seiffert Feet

During the first few days of spring break the weather in the morning was pretty alright. So I went on some hikes up Seiffert Rd, Down Mountain Home Rd, and then back around to my own side of the hill on Hwy 219. They were really a blast from the past, seeing all that landscape again in a way you can't do from a car. On three hikes around the loop I came to know every piece of litter, attaching a story as to why the piece of garbage made it to the side of the road. I also noticed patterns in the trash, seeing similar items in bunches, and some of the same types of things everywhere.

The backpack pictured I bought with a gift card from my grandmother Nancy she gave me on my birthday. I'd been wanting a nicer backpack that fit well for these sort of hikes. I'm sure this is just the start of more long hikes this summer with this new pack.
