Tell us the story behind your photo:
The silhouette of me holding a heart in the glimpse of the morning sun tells the story of our Silver Qualifying hike in mid-2022. After a long day of kayaking to our campsite, we were exhausted and had arduously woken up to the chilly morning breeze of the second day of our Hike. But as the sun began to wake from its sleep, the warming sunrise greeted us with bright smiles. Our hike was during the winter months and the nights were extremely cold, so the sunrise brought a sense of warmth and tranquillity in our minds and bodies as we prepared to venture on into our journey. This moment was certainly one of the many highlights of the journey.
