Running quickly through the meadow, the grasses tickle your legs as you rush by them. You are racing towards the sound of rushing water, eager to reach the edge of the creek. The meadow that stretches out towards the mountains on the opposite side of the creek begs you to come and explore. Carefully you pick your way across the creek on stones whose tops are just above the waters reach. As you make the jump from the last stone to the creek’s other side, you know that the adventure has just begun.
