This young lady is a barefooter extraordinaire. She spent two years living in a California redwood in a crusade to protect California's last remaining old-growth redwood forest from destruction by Pacific Lumber, a powerful logging company known for extensive violations of environmental regulations. She always climbed barefoot in the tree, which she named Luna, even in the dead of winter, noting that she "has to have the connection." Her hike from Luna to a triumphant press conference at the end of her protest was also done bare-soled. Check out her new inspirational guide, "One Makes The Difference" (available from the Circle of Life Foundation, March 2002)
