It feels as though you are living in a post card every turn uncovers more remarkable natural beauty. The vast lakes and rugged mountains make the perfect back drop for the trees alluring strip tease, which throws explosions of autumnal colours throughout their show.
The air is fresh and crisp, and if you let it catch you in the shade is not afraid to nip at your fingers and toes. The smell of wood burners wonders through the streets and draws you to their warmth.
Amongst the people there is gentle buzz of excitement about the blanket of snow that has laid it's self over the mountains, and the snow fueled adventures that are yet to come. Regularly you meet an adrenaline junky dying for his next hit. Deep white water diving in 8 degree waters. no thanks you.
