After a few days in (charming, laidback) Bitola we went to Pelister National Park. We had last encountered snow in the mountains of Albania, but that was last winter’s snow that never melted. On our hike to Pelister Peak (2601m) we encountered cold winds and came across the first new snow of the season, which—when combined with a 530 pm sunset to reckon with when hiking—was a somewhat unsettling reminder of the advancing seasons.
