Journey to Mount Katahdin and Untamable Nature

Leaving Walden Pond, Thoreau joins his cousin on an excursion to Mount Katahdin in Maine. On the journey through Maine to the mountain, Thoreau passes a Penobscot reservation and finds they have been marginalized and robbed of their territory. While he is unable to summit Katahdin, Thoreau experiences a revelation that true wildness can be felt all around us.
