just you and the environment. Isn’t this the most primitive stage of them all? Man against nature in a battle measured by verifiable results. We see this in hunting, in sail boating, and
other maritime sports, in mountain climbing, even in extreme sports like snowboarding and rock climbing.
Nature is the most primal arena there is. Hence, there is a certain appeal nature will tell us so much about how far we have come as mortals. It is a reaffirmation of our sense of self and a celebration of our humanity. It is an exhilarating feeling, a thrill that is hard to match.
