I remember the first Vision Quest I ever did and how it brought me into nature in a way I had never experienced and inspired me to lead Vision Quests.  My fiancé told me I was driving her crazy with my divorce drama and to go backpacking or something to go figure it out for myself.  I decided to go backpacking in the Sierra’s even though it was early June and there was still snow on the ground.  Although I had spent most of my outdoor life as a kid in the woods, this was different.  I stayed in one place long enough to really acquaint myself to nature and my place in it (rather small).  That was a life changer.  It inspired change deep within me and inspired me to learn more about this ancient way of gaining wisdom.  Thus my Vision Quests were born six years later after working with some Native American peoples but the fire had been ignited by that time alone in the wilderness.  Thank you Cielo Black Crow and Tommy Little Bear.
