Campfire Glow

The warm glow of a campfire cuts the chill on crisp autumn evenings and provides fertile ground for dreams. ~ Day 192 of Inspired by Wilderness: A Four Season Solo Canoe Journey. Among my goals for photography is to educate and inspire others to learn about wilderness ecosystems and develop a passion to protect all wild places. In 2014, I completed a 221-day solo canoe trip in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and Quetico Provincial Park. I documented all facets of this journey to share with others.
