| Ran the Courcheval Trail, which I take infrequently. Very rocky, and a spring-fed creek has filled up the trail in some sections. Gorgeous leaves in various hues of gold strewn all about.

and the Northern Crown crosses the sky
won't you take me back where the moon
made the phosphorus shine
And in that light there's nothing
that's impossible
everyone is a master of time
then will I begin to master mine"
