These are youths' photos compiled from our 2011 tour of Isle Royale, Badlands, Rocky Mountain, and Yellowstone National Parks, as well as our "home park", St. Croix National Scenic Riverway.
The Green Beetle
Jourdyn, 17
St. Croix National Scenic Riverway
When I saw this little beetle, it made me think about how I sometimes isolate myself, and that can be a good and bad thing at the same time for me. It seems like the beetle is in his own little world.
About Jourdyn: Hi, my name is Jourdyn and I’m from Madison, WI. I came to Northwest Passage for mistakes I have made. But now I have learned to deal situations and frustrations. One way I've been able to cope with anger is to get out and explore with my camera. This is a way I’ve been able to calm myself down and get cool pics at the same time. I would like to thank the staff here but most of all my friend and mentor Ben Thwaits.
