Lying in the foothills of the Outeniqua Mountains in a region of incomparable beauty, Wilderness is an attractive holiday resort with beautiful beaches and numerous vantage points from which to watch the whales and dolphins.
Taken in Iceland I thought I would create the perfect get away from Civilization. Two image's from the same place, but we move the cabin into a different spot has the views were much better.
The mountain range in the background contains the volcano Seljahjallagi.

Visitors to Glennallen Alaska will probably be surprised to see a Subway Sandwich shop, carved out of the wilderness, in the very center of town. Since 99.9% of visitors arrive in the summer - I thought I'd show everyone what it looks like on a sub-zero day in the middle of winter. You've got to climb through the snow to get to your favorite sandwich.

Land of Maremma, land of ancient cursed malaria, bitter land, still wild. Landscape is not breathtaking, but terribly beautiful.

Iceland's wilderness along Snaefellsnes Peninsula with these rudimentary fences sometimes being the only witness of human presence here.
Happy Fence Friday!

When I lived in Illinois, I yearned for two things, wilderness and wildlife. It took me until I was 39 years old to finally move to Alaska where I could find both. This is a valley that my wife and I found. We were the only two there, besides our dog. It was a quiet day, very little breeze.
When we are in the wilderness, the troubles of the world seem so far away. We often wish we could live in a place where we were the only people for hundreds of miles. Wilderness takes the pains of sickness and washes them away, takes the mental stress of life and clears the mind.
My wife has license plate covers that say: "Seek the Wilderness," and that is what we do, when we can.

The Tottenham Marshes are located at Tottenham in the London Borough of Haringey. The marshes cover over 100 acres (0.40 km2) and became part of the Lee Valley Park in 1972.
The marsh is made up of three main areas: Clendish Marsh, Wild Marsh West and Wild Marsh East. The latter two are separated by the River Lea.
The marshes are one of the last remaining examples of semi-natural wetland in Greater London. They contain a variety of plant communities typical of a former flood plain location, such as a range of neutral grassland types, sedge marsh, reed swamp, sallow scrub and areas of tall herb vegetation. Associated with this diversity of habitat are several species of plant and insect which are rarely seen in London.

A view of the MT Timpanogos mountain range beyond Utah Lake from a remote wilderness mountain ridge (elevation 7,318). The trail leading up to this spot was one of the most challenging that I have driven. I was told that quads had problems at times... and I think that side-by-side and quad drivers were surprised to see a truck up there.

Found this fox walking along the rocky beach of the Beaufort Sea. Not sure what it would be hunting for among the gravel, but its head was down and sniffing as it walked along. At one point, it marked a piece of driftwood, so it must hunt this beach often. The Arctic Fox numbers are down this year, so it was a treat to find this one.
I miss the wilderness of far away places. Thank heavens for memories! Back to the narrative of the India trip with my next post.
