We talk about the nature and spectrum of small to extreme disturbances on the land
We look at how disturbance can be a good thing in some situations and bad in others
We talk about some of our favorite areas and some of the plants and animals we noticed
We talk about our intent to walk slower and observe the land more intimately
We talk about the zen of Beaver, and what we thought about when encountering extreme disturbances on the land by Beavers
we speak to walking within the context of colonialization
we talk about our culture shock in tourist towns
