Nat Geo photographer Jody MacDonald shares what the wild means to her: "I’ve spent most of my life chasing wild, remote places. The wilderness isn’t just an escape; it’s a return to something essential. In one week, I found sanctuary in the silence of a glassy lake, a proving ground on the basalt walls of Smith Rock, and a playground mountain biking through pine lined trails. The wild has shaped how I see, how I work, and how I am in the world. It reminds me that discomfort is a teacher and that beauty is everywhere if you’re paying attention."
