In The Wilderness

Simple navigation

I’m in the Dolly Sods Wilderness as this email is being sent. I am trying to practice what I preach about getting distance from things so that I can see clearly. It is probably in the teens right now and the wind is kicking up at about 20 mph. We should be approaching the famous Lions Head as you read. It is also snowing.

The Dolly Sods Wilderness is in West Virginia. It is place that is very easy to get lost in. It takes an accurate map and a good compass to get you where you want to go. In that respect it is like most of life: you need to know where you would like to go, have a “map” that will show you how to get there, and have a compass that will steer you in the right direction.

No vision of where you want to go, no map, and no compass = no trajectory. If you hear from me next week I have at least navigated out of the Dolly Sods Wilderness. Head cleared, ready for anything.

Keep moving forward,

Greg
