My parents own a piece of land with a lake on it, so in the winter after it snowed, he'd be absolutely furious if us kids trampled the pretty snow on the surface of the frozen lake. Seriously, it would make him spitting mad.
When I was a child, I didn't understand his frustration. I was like WTF the deer have traipsed through it, so what's the harm if I do it too. Now that I'm older, I understand his enjoyment of the pristine beauty of nature. Living there was his life's dream and he didn't want his stupid children ruining it for him.
IIN to get this strange feeling when looking at traces in the snow?

That doesn't sound anything like what I described.

Even though he didn't feel exactly what you were feeling, seeing traces of human activity in the snow affected him.
I guess you're unique, just like everyone else. :)
