Lately, my job as "Field Advocate" has involved driving the boundaries of the areas in the Book Cliffs included in America's Red Rock Wilderness Act in order to get familiar with boundaries and edges and specific landscape features. This has to be one of the largest, most spectacular, wildest regions in Utah. On a recent trip with the writer/activist/SUWA Board Member/wife, Terry Tempest Williams, I was reminded of why Wilderness is so important to us, personally.

Thank you for the wonderful four+ minutes that were restful for me sitting outside of Philadelphia. My husband and I just came back from a trip to that lovely area of the world this past October...so it brought a smile to me to see the rocks and the water (we were in those torrential rainstorms, hail and tornadoes of early October) in the wash. And as for the "one inch clearance" part of the film, boy, can I relate! Thanks again.
