  • 'I want to see mountains again' a sentiment of Bilbo Baggins's that I understand and never more so than this year. This phrase has become a running joke between my wife and I this year and while we've been lucky to fit in a few adventures this year around lockdowns and travel restrictions we can never really get enough of the outdoors, here's hoping 2021 offers more opportunities to get into the mountains. #mountains #outdoors #adventures #lockdown #covid_19
