I originally shared this presentation through PechaKucha Bozeman, where the format encourages a brief but image-rich exploration of an idea. In this talk, Natural Awareness: From the Missouri Headwaters to the Yellowstone, I reflect on the ways landscape shapes perception, memory, and meaning. These places invite more than admiration; they ask for attention. My hope is that this presentation offers a way into that deeper kind of seeing, and into the enduring stories carried by the country between the Headwaters and Yellowstone.
