Noise and wilderness clash with modern recreation
In a reflective piece the author laments noisy machines invading forests and waterways, arguing they disrupt wildlife, silence, and the human bond with nature.

The piece quotes Philip Wylie on urban travelers and notes a banker’s blindness to outdoors until danger prompts change.
