Father's Day Hiking Shadow Box SVG — 5-Layer Papercut

"Mountain Hiking" is a 5-layer shadow box for the dad who would rather be on a trail than anywhere else. Jagged peaks rise behind a winding path where a father and child hike side by side, backpacks on, bathed in golden-hour light. A compass rose in the foreground adds an adventuring spirit — north star not included, but the sense of direction is clear.

This piece started on a real hike: my husband carrying our daughter on his shoulders up a rocky trail, both of them pointing at the view. That feeling — small people, big mountains, together — is what this template captures. For the dad who plans camping trips, studies trail maps, and comes home with stories about the summit, this is his shadow box.
