Boundless Sky and Forest Tall

One misty evening I hiked the Granite Ridge trail in Killarney. When we got to the top we found these enchanting views of the mist shrouded hills. There was a storm raging far off over Manitoulin Island, and I could hear the waves roaring in the distance on Georgian Bay. The birds and the waves provided the most etherial soundtrack. One of the people who was hiking with me remarked that this was the first time he ever really felt like the birds were singing. That they sounded like a symphony.

 

This particular image reminds me of a verse from the song "Bound for Northern Ontario" by Andy Lowe.

 

"A bounless sky above a forest tall

Rolling on far as the eye can see.

Sparkling waters pure and free for all

In the land that holds my destiny."
