2 part workshop. Part 2: We go outside for a walk down the path and try some of the wilderness awareness activities such as tasting the snow, listening to the river flow, smelling dried vegetation from the previous growing season, etc… The point being to move beyond the mere scenery of nature into full bodied participation.
