I am interested in the formula or formulas that allow modern business activities develop in harmony with the land. Not just in arts and crafts and travel and tourism, but how industry can thrive and deliver much needed employment and revenue into a sensitive area. The Industry must be able to thrive in real commercial terms and so must the land. How do we square the circle or are we just blinkered by traditional approaches - "back to nature, traditional ways' or 'to hell with nature, business rules' live for me on the extremes. I don't think there is one single new paradigm to describe the way forward. I cannot help feeling that it is down to individuals building companies to feel an obligation to their land to do the best within their capabilities to preserve the often intangible benefits of what surrounds them How do these people start to care, well in significant part by being informed by folk like yourself and taking a few moments out to look, stare and wonder. Keep up the good work Scott, you may be influencing far more than you imagine. Dean Hi Scott
We have smaller scale conflicts here in the Highlands of Scotland. I am interested in the formula or formulas that allow modern business activities develop in harmony with the land.

The Industry must be able to thrive in real commercial terms and so must the land.
How do we square the circle or are we just blinkered by traditional approaches – “back to nature, traditional ways’ or ‘to hell with nature, business rules’ live for me on the extremes.

How do these people start to care, well in significant part by being informed by folk like yourself and taking a few moments out to look, stare and wonder.
Keep up the good work Scott, you may be influencing far more than you imagine.

The intention was to open up and share a bit of me with you all, and it was honestly tough. It's not so much about me though, I desire has always been to inspire people to connect with the Alaskan frontier and nature. I continue to produce and work because I know this show allows me to be the evangelist for Alaska. I genuinely appreciate your support, and love the idea that I can inspire people to experience Alaska. It doesn't matter where you are in the world, it's all to easy to get wrapped up in our modern lifestyles. Get out and experience nature as much as you can, as it holds much truth to our purpose and existence. Thanks for joining me, and thanks for your comments. Scott P.S. Don't forget to share your adventures and discoveries, no matter where you are! Thank you for the responses to my blog post..

It is awesome. As for your next move, I agree with you 100% that we as Americans should be doing more to protect the environment, but not at such extremes that it causes economic hardship for the citizens of this country. The environment and the people can live together in harmony, but at the end of the day we survive off the land and the earth. I'm all for responsible, efficient environmental protection and it sounds like that's the direction you want to go. I wish you good luck in your endeavors. I can't wait to see the next episode.
