Description
NARRATIVE
Inside us all lies a bit of raging solitude, something primordial.
Raging solitude captures the primordial, a place we go to find bliss, to get away from it all, to find solitude, Walden's Pond as it were. But, this is no Walden's Pond, no ordinary bliss, this is a place of great violence and upheaval, where mighty rivers rage and mountains tumble. Inside us all lies a bit of raging solitude. Now, imagine, if you will, the mighty sound of raging solitude. I know you can hear it. Listen. That's called joy! And my gift to you. Enjoy.
DESCRIPTION
In the real world, "Raging Solitude", lies just outside my hometown of Lander, Wyoming, at the foot of the mighty Wind River Mountains that once rose to an amazing 60,000 feet. The Winds are still considered among the most rugged wilderness on the planet.
These falls, caught during the spring runoff, are just one of several Popo Agie falls (pronounced "po po ghe a") as the river tumbles rapidly down through a tangle of boulders and woods, into the side of a mountain "The Sinks" before coming out and then down into Lander Valley. This is one of the higher of the Popo Agie falls and a pretty good hike. Great for swimming if you don't mind the cold.
