4.9/5 (25134 ratings)

Description:Step outside the pressures of modern life, and join Michael and Kathleen's quest for beauty, solitude and adventure as they travel alone across the Barren Grounds of Canada. Their journey begins camped amid the decaying ice of a new Arctic spring, and ends 37 days later as they harvest blueberries before a final descent to Baker Lake at the head of Chesterfield Inlet on Hudson Bay.Simply, yet eloquently written, Three Seasons In The Wind transports the reader's imagination to the very banks of the magical Thelon River. By so doing, your heart will awaken to an ancient, nomadic lifestyle of physical challenge and timeless joy that is available to all who dare to pursue their dreams in Canada's pristine Northern landscape. About the Author: Kathleen and Michael first hiked together in the mountains of southern British Columbia in 1977. Since taking up canoeing in 1987, they have devoted most of their free time to gaining paddling experience in southern British Columbia on a wide variety of rivers, including the Capilano, Cheakamus, Chilliwack, Coldwater; Cowichan, Nicola, Seymour, Squamish, Similkameen and Tulameen. Their first wilderness adventure in the Northwest Territories occurred in 1990, when they paddled three weeks and 565 km down the Nahanni River from the Moose Ponds to Blackstone Landing on the Liard River. After their Thelon River trip in 1993, Kathleen and Michael returned to the north in 1995 to spend 4 weeks travelling 650 km down the Coppermine River from the site of historic Fort Enterprise to the Inuit community of Kugluktuk (formerly Coppermine) on the Arctic Coast. For their most recent wilderness adventure in 1997, Kathleen and Michael selected the Seal River in Northern Manitoba, where they spent 3 weeks paddling 300 km from Shethanei Lake to the western shore of Hudson Bay. In her non-paddling life, Kathleen is responsible for Document Strategies in Information Technology Services at the University of British Columbia. Michael is also employed at UBC, as Associate Professor of Grassland Ecology in the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences. Kathleen and Michael are both certified by the Recreational Canoeing Association of British Columbia as flat-water canoeing instructors, and regularly present slide shows on wilderness canoeing to many groups throughout the Vancouver Area.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
