Weekend 1440 Project – Mornings Outside

From the first step through an unzipped tent door, to the trail runs in first light when the mountain seems all yours, there is magic to be found outside, especially in the morning.

Last weekend, we asked our Instagram community to tell us about their favorite morning moments. We loved the responses! We saw classic moments like the first cup of coffee and healthy habits like early morning hikes. Each photo left us excited for the next chance we get to wake up outside!
