This place has become a touchstone for me of peace. It provided time of profound reflection under the canopy of trees and the warm sunshine of the meadow. –P
I came here this morning needing to leave some things behind, not sure what I would find. This space is beautiful. This place is a gift. I came with my spirit agitated, fearful and worn down, tired from keeping up, tired from taking care of everyone but myself. But as I finish this journey through aspen groves, pine forests and fields of wild flowers, I leave refreshed. I feel renewed and grateful and I take this gratefulness with me to share with others. –Beth A from Bismark, ND
I sit and wonder what it’s like to live your life and love the strife. It’s easy to get angry, hate and blame. So tell me, how does that get tamed? I try and try and try so hard. I scream, I fight, I call for help. But then I realize no one is coming. I’m by myself. -KM
This is my third time here. The peace and beauty on this path is spectacular. At the end of this hike, the owner Dave Snyder has a book in a donation box. I recommend it and I’ve gotten several copies of The Turkey Shack. If you have never felt love, you are not alone. If you have felt love in your life, what a blessing you have experienced. –Linda
I feel at peace here. Birds soaring above. Butterflies everywhere. The gentle breeze making amazing music. I could stay here for hours. Thank you so much for this location. –AAM
