...continued hiker’s meditation…

Current Reading List:
  • Beyond the Hundredth Meridian: John Wesley Powell and the Second Opening of the West / Wallace Stegner.
  • Alaskan Travels: Far-flung Tales of Love and Adventure / Edward Hoagland.

At times lately— I can feel, sense or experience that I am a mammal and detached from the tethering of the culture. At times the sense comes quite unexpectedly through the olfactory nerve— at other times through working the body on a walk at 10,000’ elev, such as up on Guanella. Today it is raining; a rarity here on the steppes to the Front Range. The freshness on the air reminds me as well.
