Wilderness is:
To me wilderness is whatever you want it to be. Most people define wilderness as no building and trees and animals but not me. I believe the city is a wilderness. It is filled with just as many dangers as a forest maybe even more. It is a concrete jungle and we are the animals. The wilderness is the unknown. And no matter how well you know a city or a forest it will surprise you. Just gotta be prepared.
Thoughts on Hiking Alone:
The hike for me was very relaxing. I wasn't really tired. I started to notice things I didn't before. It seemed like a new trail; I thought I was lost for a while, then I found myself singing silly songs and it took my mind off everything.
