I nearly died four years ago from a severely broken neck. The operation to save me took away 25% of my balance. Ilearned to walk again by hiking natural trails. Those hikes are an integral part of Wild DFW: Explore the Amazing Nature Around Dallas-Fort Worth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hear the inspiring story woven with rhapsodic passages from the book. Learn how a little knowledge about natural history and ecology can transform your perception of North Texas nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Astounding color photos bring alive peak experiences from the 25 featured hiking adventures through hardwood bottomland forests and Eastern Cross Timbers, soaring limestone escarpments, lush wetlands, and rare remnants of Blackland and Fort Worth Prairies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wild DFW is my way of facilitating others to find the healing power of nature and the natural wonder she felt as a child. Get to know a diverse community of volunteers working for nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
