Voices in the Wilderness, begun as a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Wilderness Act, allows people from many walks of life to tell personal stories about enjoyable —or maybe not-so-enjoyable —adventures and personally important moments in wild country. Pieces are written by people from all around the Scotchmans area. Each story tells of the writer’s special relationship with wild places.

But the history of the Timber Wars is far more complex and dynamic than we are led to believe. There was strife and a clashing of cultures, of course. But there is also a rich history of collaboration between…
