Another Escape presents Volume 9: The Wilderness Volume. Throughout this issue they question what wilderness is and what is means to be wild. By looking at different perspectives you will be able to see how the idea of wilderness and wildness has evolved, changed, feared, conquered, and revered. Maybe wilderness is raw untamable nature or a cabin in the woods. Or it might be something much deeper than that, it might be going beyond our comfort zones and breaking out of our modern constructs. The Wilderness Volume brings out how we may embrace our wilder selves and become more aligned with nature. It explores how creativity and collective vision can work together to create positive change, and how wildlands can inspire and motivate us. By exploring spaces shared with other species, it causes us to think about how we may offer environmental stewardship and protect the last remaining wild places. A great publication for any adventurer, keep it on your coffee table, bookshelf or throw it in your backpack.[Details]
