Visiting White Sands has always been a dream of mine. This spring, despite flight delays, frost in the morning and sunburn in the evening, I hiked through countless miles of white, sandy heaven. As the sun fell, I hiked down the backcountry trail, drawn towards the setting sun like a magnet. The soft, delicate sand sieved through my sandals as I went up and down dunes, until at last I reached this lookout.
