The little story

Alpine Aerie

Alpine Aerie is a tall gable lodge that points straight at the mountains, with a birdhouse by the wall and a pair of binoculars ready for the view. The view is the whole point of the place.

Ari the altitude enthusiast has been watching the peaks since before the coffee was ready. Ari points out clouds shaped like your next adventure, and the compass always points up, which is very useful at this height.

Come up the path and say hello. The air is clear, the birds are early and there is always another summit to talk about.
