Escape to the Mountains (56 images)
Escape to the Mountains
Mountains, soaring above the plains and valleys, beckon the traveler to escape from the day-to-day stresses of life. Wildflowers, bird songs, and alpine air refresh visitors who take time to reconnect with the wondrous world of mountains.
“The mountains are calling, and I must go.”
~John Muir
