Its interesting that the hardest part about leaving the wilderness hasn’t been the over stimulation that comes from all the lights, cars, crowds. We are having a hard time being closed off from the outside world. We don’t see the sunrise and sunset, feel the temperature change through the day, or hear the wind. Wall form a barrier for our bodies and our senses. We find ourselves missing the deep connection with nature that Wilderness provides. We miss watching the light change as day turns into night like it we did on Isabella Lake when I took this photo almost exactly a year ago. We can’t quantify the intangible value of Wilderness, but we must fight for it so that future generations reap the rewards that places like the Boundary Waters bestow on everyone it touches.
Now that we are back in Minnesota we are starting to sift through all our images, journals, and memories. We look forward to sharing the journey with you as we unpack and reflect on our #wildernessyear to @savetheBWCA . Please sign the petition at http://ift.tt/1x2erSX and continue to speak loudly to the Wilderness.
