I stopped on the high, steep mountain trail to catch a breath. I looked down

cool breeze. I saw the wildflowers growing down the mountain in every colour
and shade one could possibly imagine, and the ice-blue lake stretching as far
as the eye could see. The vision made my head spin. I had never seen
anything so beautiful before in my life.

Excellent answer!
