I decided I would ride my bike up Badger Mountain’s Skyline Trail today. I got my heart pumping and plugged in my headphone (since I’m usually listening to speeches, audiobooks or podcasts, I usually wear only one so I can still hear my surroundings).

I was pleasantly greeted by Badger Mountain looming as a large shadow in the dark of the early morning, indicating that the past few days of fog had cleared and it would be a beautiful clear morning.

I know I’m a little weird because I find myself on Badger Mountain frequently. I hope this can serve as a motivator for others who head up the trails around the Tri-Cities and get outdoors and be more active.
