Walkin' Jim Stoltz is one guy who, in his dedication to wilderness and wildlife, truly "walks the walk"--as well as talkin' the talk. Jim has walked well over 24,000 miles walking through wildernesses from border to border wherever they still remain. He has written many songs about his adventures---has done many recordings also. Recently he asked me to give him a list of TRADITIONAL SONGS that SPECIFICALLY PRAISE AND PUT LIGHT ON THE WONDERS OF NATURE AND WILDERNESS. (Trad songs only---please!)

All I could think of, sadly, was "The Ash Grove"---actually Carol thought of that while I was drawing a complete blank.

Can anybody out there come up with songs about nature & wilderness--descriptive songs that aren't encumbered by story line or action details like story songs/ballads.

Thanks folks,
