Nice pictures. To be fair the boring tag is for summer like many big boring lumps. Winter brings a lot of hills into their own.

I don't believe there's really such a thing as a boring hill, ok some are more exciting than others, but I've not found a boring one yet. Having said that, I'd love to have been there on this trip. :D

Perfection indeed. :D

As one of the many people who has seen heehaw from the top of this one (I couldn't even seen the fenceline until I was about 2 feet away from it and that was in June!!!), I'm so glad that you posted this treat :D :D

Going add this to the winter walk list, maybe next weekend.

Cheers.
