What is trail life?

It is the embodiment of a second life. A life that one only understands if one has lived it. A life where cool mountain air wakes you instead of coffee. A life where complete strangers become your closest friends and sometimes family. A life where the days are long and the work is hard but the pay off is so much more then you would ever dream. Tail life is more then a job. It is a dream of how life could be or maybe how it was intended. Creating, fixing and beautifying trails to preserve the rest of the earth. Pushing your body to its limits only to find out that those are not its limits. Doing super happy fun time and hating it and then loving and missing it on your days off. You become a different person out in the field. Parts of you disappear. The scared and anxious you who was afraid of all things is now a strong and courageous person who only fears personal disappointment.
You can’t know or have an idea of trail life. You live it and feel it. Its something you experience and is different for everyone.
I love tail life. I miss trail life. I want to be out of the office.
