In the 67 stories I’ve transcribed so far, every one has touched on an emotion I’ve felt or a belief I’ve shared about the Sierra and conservation in general. I’m a writer at heart, and I believe the written word has more strength than mere paper and ink belie. I believe it can influence decisions, enlighten the curious, inspire readers to act, and, ultimately, affect the future of our beloved mountains.
