Priceless Treasure

A reflection from my time at the location which is in the middle of Pine Creek (visible from Barbour Rock vista looking southeast) that I call Sycamore Island:

Biodiversity is a priceless treasure; let us cherish and protect it today and forever. Head to the mountains, valleys, lakes, rivers, and oceans. Spend time in the marshlands, deserts, and canyons. Take in all of the goodness, beauty and diversity of these wild spaces and the wildlife that call each home. Live in the moment; and when you return, find ways to share with others the priceless treasures you’ve found there and the inspiration that the Spirit of God has placed within your heart. Together our voices will be like many drops of water in a mighty current, our advocacy protecting the priceless treasure of biodiversity for generations to come.

Get acquainted with our Wild Neighbors along the trail as we make our way into the Pine Creek Gorge, beloved of one of the most prolific Nature Writers to have lived in this area, George Washington Sears, a.k.a. “Nessmuk.” As we saunter along, we’ll pause to reflect on the words of Nessmuk himself.

We’ll cover a 3 mile stretch of the Pine Creek Rail Trail and as we saunter along, we’ll pause to contemplate the beauty of wild spaces and the awesome power of God’s love while also taking note of the signs of Springtime soon to come.
