Thor Wier was brought up in the city along a canyon, and spent most of his time in the canyon, realizing his love for nature. At the age of 11 he nearly lost his life from an accident, but in return got a movie camera from the neighborhood that put together money for him to start his interest in making films. He made several films growing up with friends, and then became a producer for a local TV channel, and made many documentaries about nature. He rode from San Diego to Canada by horse, and when he came back he opened up a Horse Business and took people out on Pack Trips in the Cuyamaca Mountains. Tourist complained being sore from riding all day, so he invented the water saddle in 1972. He showed the trek to Canada by horse from the grant he received from school, and taught a class at SDSU "Horse Exploration Packing and Herbs along the Trail", where he hired a Medicine Man from Mexico that had taught the students about the medicinal, food, and building aspects of plants. His love for this Planet seeing it thru the eyes of an animal by traveling across the western hemisphere, and by seeing the beauty of the mountains, made him realize the need for helping show how much need there is for all of us to work together as a unite of those interested in helping keep this world in balance for the sake of making it workable for humanity.
