Wilderness Paths

The wilderness of the boreal forest has been cut through with survey lines, property boundaries, and seismic routes laid by oil companies.



When walking in the woods - sometimes one can lose one's sense of direction. Emerging onto one of the paths is a revival of sorts - reassuring with purpose in a through a wild place preoccupied with its own laws and rules without consideration for anything else.



Sometimes a dam may provide a way across a stream and into a new region of exploration.



A path in the morning provides a space for sunlight to reach the forest floor.
