Into The Wild

This image evokes the wildness of the North Fork of the Flathead River in northwest Montana, although it was taken considerably farther north, near the Yukon-British Columbia boundary. Wild, unbroken country stretches nearly contiguously from Yellowstone to Yukon, yet road building, mining, railroad construction, non-renewable energy and other development pressures threaten the lives and livelihood of this remote region’s wild and human inhabitants.
