I had the opportunity to help lead a trek to the Northern Tier High Adventure Base this past summer. We had a fantastic time and this is the poem I wrote when we got back to base.

There’s a magic in the silence and the beauty of the Northern Tier
In the song of the loon and the eagles dancing across the sky,
Where the fox plays on the shore and the beaver crosses the lake,
The majesty of the night sky, and the gentle waves of lakes lull you to sleep
There’s magic in the silence and the beauty of the Northern Tier…..
