The fact that you can set foot on a piece of this earth that has never seen another human footprint, is one thing that has appealed to us also. Even though I can likely do that on my property here at home right now.
The other is solitude and beauty, only sometimes spoiled by 4 wheelers and the like. LOL.
Enjoy my friend, and be grateful for the chance. We are sure hoping to follow your steps sooner rather than later.
