I enjoyed the discussion about Colin Fletcher. One of the gifts he lays out in the book, is to forget about time. He talks at length about observing nature, and trying to be part of it. My favorite passage relates to the various thresholds he reaches the longer he is in the backcountry. I vaguely remember 4 days, 2 weeks, and 6 weeks as time frames that change one's thinking. I have never reached the 6 week threshold in the backcountry, but would like to hear from those that have. How does it change your thought processes?
