Two in the Wilderness
by Sandra Weber / Carl Heilman II, photographer |
|||||||||
You can't really get a feel for the Adirondacks from a map. It is a big place with lots of crannies and crevices. Even from an airplane, you can't grasp the calm hush and deep slush of this place. You have to put on a pair of boots and walk up and down and back and forth across it's turf.

Grab a backpack and join Sandra and her daughter Marcy for a trek in the Adirondack wilderness. Feel the sensation of climbing mountains, sleeping in open lean-tos, eating wild blueberries, floating like lily pads, and laughing with loons. | |||||||||
Add alpine flowers, a bear, and nine days of rain, and the result is an appreciation of nature. By the end of the 60 mile trip, mother and daughter also learn to appreciate each other. | |||||||||
