A Short Trip

first hiking of the year

January 3, 2021 — Wilmer Edson

First of all I wanted to let you know that if you are reading these words I have to congratulate you for having survived this year full of "adventures".

I also have to say that this year I have a greater commitment to create more content, both written and photographs, and why not some video as well.

And finally here are my first photos of this year. It was an incredible morning to be able to enjoy the views from the mountains in Navarra.

I hope you enjoyed.

A little forest

Last Saturday we went to a forest about 19 kilometers from home located in the Imoz Valley. I'm still amazed at how wonderful places can be found in our region (Navarre). I have always been amazed by nature, many times I am speechless and wondering if it is really real or am I in one of the landscapes of The Lord of the Rings.

We had a great desire to see horses, in fact before leaving home we prepared some fruits to feed them. Unfortunately we did not find any horses, as is evident since there are no horses in any of the photos. But we saw a group of goats in the distance and also a small group of sheep, we did give them the apples that we had prepared. At first the sheep were shy, they probably would give them something bad.

Although we hadn't prepared anything for ourselves at home, we bought some crab sandwiches at the gas station that were delicious. Walking through the forest we find a spectacular place to enjoy our little snack. We sat under the shade of a fruit tree that gave us a perfect shade and through which you could feel the fresh air.

I am grateful that we don't have to travel that far to be surrounded by such beauty. Our Creator has painted it as a perfect picture to show us how great He is and we can enjoy what He has done.

Hunters forest

On Wednesday afternoon we decided to go to a hunting forest that we usually go to many times as we like it a lot. We went for a walk, take photos and collect Sloes.This forest is very close to home if you drive about 7 minutes. It has areas that strangely look like a jungle and others as if magical elves live there.

Like I said, we really wanted to collect Sloes and we did, although we couldn't find many. I plan to write in a next post about how to prepare homemade Pacharán (liqueur), it is something very easy to do.

Walking towards the search for Sloes, we realized how minimally we can notice how Autumn begins to change the color of the perishable leaves of the trees. For me it is a reflection that little by little everything will be "dead" and we will have to put hope again in our hearts to see the forest reborn again, I have always seen it as a very real hope year after year.

We were at the point that I like the most about this place, where you can be surrounded by mountains, mountains full of life and color (still). We were sitting on a small hill as it drizzled, observing the landscape, reflecting on what God has created. It was beautiful.

Finally we crossed a small stream, then we entered a path that looked like an entrance to a humid forest but I think we had that idea since there was a lot of fern (we love it).

We want to go back to this forest and see how little by little the leaves change color, more yellowish and reddish. And we hope that is very soon.

Walking in the Pyrenees

This Tuesday I was with some friends visiting a minimum part of the Navarrese Pyrenees. This place is 1000 meters above sea level and only 50 minutes from home. I do not have an epic story to tell but I can say that being there was amazing, despite the wind and snow that fell, it was worth it. I hope you enjoy the photographs.
