WILD Foundation

A wilderness experience occur when one perceive phenomena in the wilderness. It is important to keep in mind that achieving a globally agreed-upon definition for wilderness is difficult, and may not even be entirely necessary. However, a common definition of wilderness is an uncultivated, uninhabited, and inhospitable region. It is an area essentially undisturbed by human activity together with its naturally developed life community. Wilderness leaves no place for human beings, save perhaps as contemplative sojourners enjoying their leisurely reverie in God’s natural cathedral. Some well known wilderness areas are tropical rainforest, tropical woodlands, savannas and grasslands, wetlands, deserts, temperate forests, high latitude wilderness areas, and etc. By associating the wilderness as a place, wilderness is perhaps an experience, however, it can be argued that it is merely an idea. One way for wilderness to be an experience is through traditions and religion. The film, In the Light of Reverence, shows several Native American tribes and their relationship with nature. The Lakota tribe indicates that their relationship with the Devils Tower in Wyoming was an experience that was unmediated. The wilderness experience is highly connected to the culture, traditions, and spirituality of the Lakota Tribe. In addition, the Wintu tribe also expresses the same idea about nature and the wilderness. A member of the Wintu Tribe indicates that Mount Shasta is a sacred site, and “so is…

“I care not much for a man's religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it.” Abraham Lincoln Located at the end of County Line Road, near Alfalfa, Oregon, the large sign at the entrance served as a notice that I was entering the Oregon Badlands Wilderness. Exploring the wilderness areas in Central Oregon and absorbing the seclusion they offer is invigorating. Beyond the dirt parking lot at the trailhead a gravel road continued into the federally protected wilderness area. Designated…

The Book of Yaak by Rick Bass I hate “The Book of Yaak”. This book should not have been written. The fault, however, does not lie with author Rick Bass. Bass’ style is clear and poetic, intermingling of his not-quite-stream-of-consciousness prose seamlessly with the scientific data and information that illustrates the dire situation for his place, the Yaak Valley of Northern Montana, and all of his fellow citizens, lynx, deer, wolves, wood thrush, owls, and grizzlies. “The Book of Yaak” is Rick…

and of course, go from a two to a ten. The magic of that is foundation which comes in a variety of shades for every skin tone out there. However, not all foundations are the same. For example, my first time wearing foundation at the young age of fourteen, I wore starlight beige from Cover Girl thinking it would hide my freckles and pimples, yet I did not know I would be the laughing- stock in middle school with people saying I looked like an Oompa loompa from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory…

Callarman’s argument is the most accurate view of Into The Wild and Chris McCandless’s decision. Chris made an ignorant decision based on his current feelings and how his parents treated him. You can’t succeed in the future with your actions at this point and time, but you sure can throw out your future with your current actions. And that is exactly what Chris did, he went from graduating from Emory University, to moving into the Alaskan wilderness and dying. He had the foundation of his life…

his own in the wild of Alaska. This statement can be viewed as deeply ironic considering McCandless intentionally severed his connections from society to be alone. What was his motive to do something so drastic? Jon Krakauer, a man of adventure and thrill seeking searched for an answer, and in his search he discovered the similarities between himself and Chris. Captivated by McCandless’ journey for self-discovery, Krakauer wrote a nonfiction book titled Into the Wild, about Chris McCandless and…

Into the Wild The story into the wild is written by Jon Karkur soon after the death of Christopher Johnson McCandless. At first he was given the responsibility by the editors of outside magazine to cover the story of Alex real name McCandless who died at the age of 24 while he was hitchhiked to Alaska and walked into wilderness. His article covered the how Alex suffered starvation and vague and how he gave up his name, his bank balance and burned his wallet and gave all his possession to live…

"Your are responsible for your own happiness," a quote used by many people. Some do agree with this saying while others don't. In the film 'Into the Wild' we saw how Chris McCandless made his own happiness while ignoring how other people feel about him and his decisions. We observed that by going to Alaska he'd receive happiness. Some people throughout the film tried to stop him but nothing changed his mind. Because of this many people criticized Chris for his choice to go into the wild. People…
