I love all the green in the picture. I can see why he would be disappointed to have no vistas - after all that work! LOL

Lovely photo. Hiking can produce some gorgeous photos.

He did take a great picture though. So not so disappointing for us.

Pretty, even without a view. I don't enjoy hiking much-something about it wears me out, even faster than trying to jog.
