Words of Wilderness from Peter McBride and Vital Films

wildernessvitalfilms

We have a lot of awesome wilderness here in Colorado.  Peter McBride put the words from famous environmentalists Edward Abbey, Aldo Leopold, Ralph Waldo Emerson, John Muir, and Wallace Stegner to some awesome shots of some mostly Colorado wilderness areas in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Wilderness Act. Our favorite quote was from Edward Abbey: “The idea of wilderness needs no defending, it only needs defenders.”
