I took a solo hike into the bottom of the canyon and began fantasizing about taking a full solo trip. I crave uninterrupted segments of time when I can fully take in my surroundings without wondering whether the other person is tired, hungry, or bored. I want to keep my own pace and take unexpected detours. Maybe I could take a creative trip to compose part of the day and spend the rest of the time in nature?
