Day 6 on the W Trail: Blue Ice and Goodbye Kisses: The W Trek's Grand Finale.
They say all good things must come to an end, and my epic W trek was no exception. I woke up on my last day with a mix of excitement and dread. The thought of leaving this stunning wilderness filled me with a profound sense of loss. After all, where else can you hike for days, only to be rewarded with a glacier-side happy hour? While I was slightly disappointed not to see a chunk of ice the size of a house break off into the lake, I can't complain about the view. It was the perfect send-off to one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life.
