A Few Words: "I'll interpret the rocks, learn the language of flood, storm and the avalanche. I'll acquaint myself with the glaciers and wild gardens, and get as near the heart of the world as I can." --John Muir

"Only the mountain has lived long enough to listen objectively to the howl of the wolf." --Aldo Leopold, from "Thinking Like a Mountain"
