Alone in the Wilderness

What is a true wilderness experience? Is it going to the mountains hiking, mountain biking or camping? I believe it is something different for everyone. The wilderness is a place where everyone can let go of stress, jobs, bills, and politics. The wilderness lets you hear the sounds of nature: The wind blowing through the pines, the birds chirping, a wolf howling, a babbling brook, or a water fall created by freshly melted snow flowing down the mountain side.
