Opis

South Florida has the largest area of wilderness in the eastern United States. The ultimate experience in this backcountry is canoeing the Wilderness Waterway through Everglades National Park, and this is a story of such a trip. This is a most unforgiving wilderness, having extreme weather and water conditions and abundant wildlife that, at times, tend to view us humans as food. However, one learns to become one with the land, or suffer the consequences, which can be permanent. The physical and mental challenges of such a trip are a life changing experience that tightens the soul. The ecology, colorful history and environmental concerns are addressed in detail. As with most of the planet, the Everglades is subjected to the issues of development, exploitation, pollution and climate change. While the national park and Big Cypress National Preserve are theoretically protected, the area is dependent upon resources and influences from areas that are not. Whether we protect such rarities or allow them to fade away is a decision we need to make as the predominate species on the planet.
