Survey the landscape

It might be a small island but there just doesn't seem to be enough time to enjoy all there is here.

Last Friday on our way home from SHAPE we made an impromptu stop at High Peak.
High Peak is that top pointy bit that sits on an already high ridge making for great views. 


Looking north east across the interior of the island from High Peak.


Saturday afternoon we hiked, got a bit lost, got caught in the rain and worried a few sheep. Kyle's photos, although they are wonderful, do not fully capture the feelings one has when standing in this landscape.






Saint Helena is definitely one of those "you just have to be here" kind of places. There is no vantage point that I have been to, by car or on foot, that is not dramatic.
