This brief clip captures Mrs. Pix getting a bit of relief during the turn-around rest stop on one of our hikes. As usual, she was naked from the start, and bravely so. The morning was blustery, threatening rain with a bit of chill in the air. We anticipated that the day would clear, but as nipply as it was, she wavered understandably about whether to wear any clothes. But boldness won out and she set forth from the trailhead wearing only her cowboy hat and hiking shoes. You may tell from the lighting in this clip that though the day had warmed a bit (but not much, as her erect nipples testify) the sky was still overcast at the turn-around.
This happened to be one of those hikes during which we got busted. About halfway back to the trailhead, on a long uphill grade when she happened to have opened up a bit of a lead on me, she suddenly straightened up and started scampering back toward me. She ducked behind me, grabbing her emergency cover-up from around my neck and scrambled to pull it on. I glanced up the trail ahead, and sure enough, there was another couple heading down the trail in our direction.
Now, when hiking uphill, one tends to look generally downward at the trail a limited distance ahead; the steeper the trail, the closer in is one’s attention. On the other hand, when hiking downhill, it is much more natural to look farther ahead, enjoying the scenery. Well, we had failed to notice this couple coming from a long distance and the naked Mrs. Pix had been part of their scenery for quite some time.
By the time they were upon us, Mrs. Pix was ALMOST covered, red faced – I was shaking my head, laughing – and our fellow travelers were passing us with chuckles stifled down to polite smiles, offer just a discreet “Good morning” and continuing on their way. To her TOTAL credit, we had hiked on just another 50 feet or so when Mrs. Pix paused and peeled off her cover, handing it back to me and continued the hike back to our car completely naked. Awesome.
