Invading the silence

Thanks for this glimpse into the Red Desert. Beautiful, sad report.

I am sad.

I am sad to hear that some people got lost and died, and since I just heard this movie, I want to explore there, and to be tough and never to give up.

Some sad education

I understand that there are many things that can not be saved. But hopefully they can save some of this Red Desert. I appreciate this knowledge. Thank you!

Photos alone worth it, but the stories alone would also be worth it.

A story that needs to be told. Thank you Annie Proulx, Emma Brown and Martin Stupich for enhancing our appreciation of this special place.
