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.
