I dont know if this was exactly the right day or time but sequentially it's accurate. We walked up and down through comepletely desolate mountainrange. through most of the trip there were tears in my eyes for all the beauty I had to take in. Vidal totally enhanced our appreciation of the place- he was able to just be quiet, sort of meditative, with us. It felt a little like a pilgrimage and I am not religious but I felt like there was a spiritual essence to the land. I think i felt it most when we walked along a ridge crossing through dense cloudy fog. It really looked like a pot boiling over and we all were in the middle of it. It was like we were in the epicenter of creation. Like when the planet came into being it started right where were standing. I will never forget it.
