As A Wild Guide evolved, I found myself replacing modern objects and terminology with period-appropriate alternatives to better place Rusty Pickett somewhere around 1895–1905. The journey didn't change. The world he traveled through did. https://www.journeysofthecrew.com/field-notes/why-i-keep-going-back-to-the-woods monthly 0.5 2026-07-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a0f474b30c78e279f4aecb8/1785436005067-RKUFI609ZF4C6F9PIODV/blog-why-i-keep-going-back.png Field Notes - Why I Keep Going Back to the Woods - Make it stand out Every trip into the woods gives me something to bring home. Sometimes it's a photograph. Sometimes it's a story.
