There are 79 of these primitive areas In 11 states. For modest rates, outfitters take groups on comfortable com-fortable guided pack trips Into the awesome splendor of these .packer" George 8. Wells In Redboos, Magazine. In an article lor the July Issue describing his first pack trip to the Brldger Wilderness of Wyoming, he says, There is no substitute for the heady air of high altitudes no aloneness so complete. "Except for our own, there were no Horseshoe prints on the route we followed into tre virgin solitudes of the Brilger Wilderness Wilder-ness rea of Wyoming. In all our days to follow there, we were to meet only four other human beings, be-ings, members of a Forest Service Ser-vice trail-maintenance crew. "In this, the 283,000-acre Brldger is typical of 79 wilderness wilder-ness areas In 11 states. Each is carefully preservel in its original, origi-nal, primitive condition unmanned un-manned by man's 'improvements.' 'improve-ments.' With mechanlzel transportation trans-portation prohibited, not more than a few score people a year work along the Bridger's forested forest-ed trails to high meadows and unflshed lakes reflecting the peaks of the Continental Divide. "We had climbed Into our saddles at 8 o'clock Iris and I, a Chicago dentist and his wife with two small children, plus Chuck, the outfitter, leading a string of pack horses with all the equipment, and his wife, Marie, who'd cook and attend .to minor camp chores. . "When the soft trail fell away and we entered the amphitheater amphithe-ater of alpine heights, I can still remember vividly the sense of 'smallness' that overcame me. In these vast solitudes, the familiar fam-iliar world is far behind, beyond be-yond reach; here, each man is on his own as never before perhaps per-haps in his life. Tou get a new perspective on yourself, dwarfed by nature's huge majesty. "Our main objective on the trip was Hay Pass in the Alpine Lakes region, right on the spine of the Continental Divide an area, Chuck told Us, seen by less than 200 people In all the centuries cen-turies it has existed. That was prospect enough but on the way, Chuck took us to see the small glaciers which lurk above 12,000. feet. One was particularly Impressive especially to the youngsters. It was the 'grasshopper 'grass-hopper glacier', where millions of Insects are frozen Into winter Ice and slowly melt out again during July and August. i Coming down, we followed the vivid green glacler-fed waters of the Green River, foaming in canyon cataracts. And then, at Green River Lake, after twelve days of travel In the high country, coun-try, we came reluctantly back to the road and the everyday world. Our, wilderness journey was at an end. We would come back but there would never again be the special wonder of a first time for any of us.
