Smitty, no picture can show what this place if all about. Pictures capture an image but cannot capture the emotions or response of a person to that visual. Each person has a different experience.
Some hate it. Every moment is a trial.
Others love it. They feel the awe and learn more about themselves through the adventure. They experience an inner change through being on the land without outside interference.
Some are neutral. They see the landscape and enjoy it. The adventure is good. But it is a more technical experience without deep feeling or emotions being tumbled.
One of my finest memories is drycamping one autumn evening alongside the Yukon River many miles northwest of Dawson City. Not another soul around as we camped near the historic village of Forty Mile. My husband was sitting by the campfire staring out at the water flowing by, then tears began flowing. I asked if he was okay. He said he couldn't describe what he was feeling. Then I knew he got it!
And I think you may have got it too!
