That sounds like an amazing place. Such wilderness also has its dangers, but you can't beat its beauty and lessons. It's awesome you have such great memories. I also grew up in a rural area until about the age of six, when we moved to the city. So I've been a city boy for awhile. Maybe I'm making up for it now by walking around in the bushes. 😀

Actually, I wasn't much older than that when these events occurred. We didn't leave the rural area until I was eleven, but before that one of my brothers became very ill and the dynamic in the house changed completely. As I'm sure you will agree, those early years traipsing in the forest helped form my personality. You are lucky you had that experience, also.
