"Alpine Wilderness" tries to capture the beauty, fragility and purity of an alpine wilderness before it is sullied by the arrival of snow hoons. There is a magic timeless quality to snow and ice and it is heart-breaking to find an untouched spot that fills your soul with joy, to strike out on your cross country skis your thoughts singing and find when you return towards evening that others have visited while you were skiing and broken, smashed, churned and rubbished a little piece of perfection.
