It seems to come from the belief that the mountains and surrounding wildernesses are a temple at which worship is to be offered. Or that it is a place to recharge the soul and appreciate God's creation. Why can't it be both, or all, at the same time? Are these places we go to so small that there is not room to enjoy the hills in more ways than one or two?

I have always loved pikas, not just because of their appearance, but because when you see one, you know you are in a neat place -- high up in the mountains. Pika territory!
