In the west, they rise. Majestic and proud. Their delicate peaks, painted white, always reaching higher to blur the line between land and sky. When you’re in them, the rest of the world fades away. Only the natural beauty at your fingertips and the untamed earth beneath your feet exist in that moment. Leaving the mountains, bound for the eastern plains, it’s easy to feel a little ache in your soul. But one glance in the rearview mirror is all it takes to remember that mountains aren’t something you leave behind—they stay with you always.
