Heading out into the countryside, into the white world. Contemplating how the water emerges from the ice and snow, from the sponge that is the soil, the roots of the heather, the moss, and the lichens. Enjoying the luxury of drinking from it. Then sucking on the sleet that has clung to the branches, the … Continue reading Late Snowfall

Water journeys
In the magazine, we are constantly thinking about new projects related to any kind of activity or knowledge that is done outdoors. We are concerned with reflecting what catches our attention and poses a challenge for personal training and development. One that I have in mind for a long time is to compile in an … Continue reading Water journeys
Waterfalls
There are four physical forces that define the nature of the known universe: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong nuclear force, and the weak nuclear force. Gravity causes planets and suns to maintain their orbits, electromagnetism causes charged particles to attract or repel each other, the strong nuclear force holds protons and neutrons in the nucleus of … Continue reading Waterfalls
Cantabrian Sea
We have only relatively recently begun to visit the seabed regularly, although it may seem like scuba diving is an everyday activity today. We have been practicing it autonomously for less than 100 years, and gradually, it has become commonplace, carried out with high levels of safety, but still with limited duration and depth. Nevertheless, … Continue reading Cantabrian Sea

Riparian
There is only one thing more precious, in terms of value and beauty, than a river. Without it, a river is nothing. With it, a river is not just a canal with a meadow, an irrigation ditch with a garden, a trickle with weeds, water and nothing. It has many names. They call it riverside … Continue reading Riparian

Crossing the ravines, searching for a path among the already bloomed brooms, stepping on quartz stones and the ancient hoof marks of wild boars. The enormous flood of December is clearly visible on the shore. He remembers the precise steps based on the shape of a rocky outcrop or a distant tree protruding from the … Continue reading Gift
Heptageniidae Family
Heptageniidae is a family of aquatic insects belonging to the order Ephemeroptera, very abundant in the middle and upper reaches of rivers and whose presence is often a clear indicator of water quality. Like most mayflies, they spend most of their life in the larval stage in the riverbed; they are mainly scraper larvae, some … Continue reading Heptageniidae Family
Chalkboards and Zander
In some of them, there are shadows of forests of tree ferns, winged dinosaurs, armored fish, and climates that did not touch us. What rivers, tumults, and drags were stacking these sands, muds, and sediments. What forces took them to the bottom. How many millions of years did they make them and then put them … Continue reading Chalkboards and Zander
