If future generations are to remember us with gratitude rather than contempt, we must leave them more than the miracle of technology. We must leave them a glimpse of the world as it was in the beginning, not just after we got through with it.

I thoroughly enjoyed this JMT trip video, particularly the music. It fits the video to a tee, even though the video is "only" a series of still shots. Well worth watching it. It runs a little over 4 minutes. You'll enjoy it!

Here's a great installment in the Yosemite Nature Notes series (Episode 3 - Wilderness). It puts words to how I'm sure many of us feel about the wilderness in a way that can be used to share that with folks who don't understand the value of it. Enjoy!
