The Florida Everglades, The River of Grass, is enigmatic and mysterious. Four young women, all residents of Northwest Passage, ventured past the veil of mystery and discovered the beauty and diversity of life that lies within its borders. They explored the inland sloughs, cypress domes, and hammocks on foot; they traveled the tidal mangrove coastline by canoe. Traveling alongside local writers, artists, and National Park Service Rangers they were awed by the wonders of this one of a kind landscape. They formed a deep and meaningful connection to this critical and resilient environment all while continuing their own personal journeys of hope and healing.
