These are after all what drives most of us in our day to day lives. We lock our children in seat belts when embarking on a trip for the simple reason we put their safety as our number one priority. Because we value their lives, their presence to our lives, and the enrichment they bring us everyday. I believe we should value our rivers the same way. It's a very simple concept.
Winter brings the snows that lay in the high country for months on end, sometimes years.
As temperatures warm in spring and summer, the rivers bring the bounty to everyone and everything living downstream. Along the way, the simple force of gravity works the molecules into another force called hydrology. Through it all the river flows freely, as freely as any life-giving body can be. And give it does, in so many ways. When you turn on your tap and fill that glass with pure clean water, thank the Logan River.
