“If you know wilderness in the way that you know love, you would be unwilling to let it go. … This is the story of our past and it will be the story of our future.”

– Terry Tempest Williams

Everything about visiting Denali National Park and Preserve astonished me and made me think. The National Park Service had some flyers on a desk that said, “NPS 2014 Challenge: ‘What does wilderness mean to you?'” Park visitors were invited to submit photos or stories or multi-media projects through any of the customary social media outlets using #MyWilderness.

My McKinley
My. Denali above all, even in Alaska

I submitted some photos via Instagram, but I really thought the question and the experience of Denali deserved deeper work. “Snow Globe” was the result.
