It’s cool to think about all the diverse environments we have traveled through by human power. From high passes of the Colorado Rockies, to the deserts of southern Wyoming. Through the Wind River range, past the Tetons, through Yellowstone, all the way across Montana and British Columbia, and now to the costal islands and mountains of Alaska. The world both grows and shrink when traveling by human power. On this trip, I read the book, The Hidden Life Of Trees by Peter Wohlleben, which has me paying closer attention to the forests. As we know, fires are running rampant in Canada this summer. I thought the Central part of British Columbia would be vast untouched forests. It turns out basically everything we have passed outside of the national parks has been harvested. And big sections of the parks have burned. I had no idea how little old growth is left. From a carbon and bio diversity standpoint, protecting old growth is one of the best things we can do. We are making a film and therefore this trip is far from being low carbon, but for me it is a proof of concept. I now believe it’s not only possible to see and learn about vast areas of the world by bike, it’s grows the magnitude of the adventure immensely. 📸 @taylor._shaffer」8月11日 2時16分
