One ubiquitous sign of resilience
here are the mountains. They protect our valley from tornadoes and
cyclones. They catch passing weather and keep our water table full. They
provide fuel, food and medicine with the flora and fauna they house.
Mountain streams enable successful farming here, and mountain pastures
help keep ranch animals healthy. For our modern culture, they offer a
plethora of marketable activities for tourism which, in and of itself,
is a wealth stream of opportunity for our community.
