While the solo snap of the hunky actor appeared to be a casual hiking picture, he purposefully chose to pose in front of a large body of water, just one day before the release of Swift’s highly-anticipated bonus track, The Lakes.
The pair reportedly ‘just went to Park City, Utah for a few days,’ before returning to their quarantine in Los Angeles, according to E! News.
