Whether you're jogging through the park, camping with your family, or simply hiking through the backcountry of the Rocky Mountains, you've probably seen them: happy couples lurking behind trees. While they aren't always dangerous, they can make doing your business in the woods pretty uncomfortable. In our attempt to better understand endless love, we look at these 10 pictures of happy couples hiding behind trees.
