About
Alaskan Odysseys chronicles 11 different journeys into 11 different parts of Alaska, all of them remote areas that require significant effort (logistics) to access. Much work went into the planning for these trips, because they involve much by way of preparation, transportation in and out, and all the gear necessary to be self-contained for up to two weeks in a land that will make you pay for any mistakes. This is much more than a 'how-to' collection of chapters, there are the daily events to relate, daily events that might include a hair-raising descent through a series of rapids, or a sighting of brother griz on the prowl, or observations about the uniquely Alaskan geography we find ourselves in. These 11 trips of a lifetime were some of the most challenging times of my life, and brought out the best in each of us, providing me, at least, with stories for a lifetime. This book will appeal to anyone with an interest in the Alaskan wilderness.
