A Vast and Untouched Wilderness,
By A Customer
This review is from: Stikine River (Alaska Geographic) (Paperback)
The Stikene River careens through northern British Columbia past magnificent mountains, cutting canyons deeper, carrying salmon to the Pacific and tossing adventurous kayakers high over its rapids. In years past, it was a primary trade route for the natives of the area, and was instrumental transporting miners during the Yukon Gold Rush. However, all of these facts, so well detailed in this volume, are nothing in comparison to the photographs of a harsh and stunningly beautiful land. The brute strength of the enormous quantity of water, the utter isolation of the still largely unexplored costal mountains and the breathtaking vistas are the images that you will be left with. With those images will be a nostalgia of a life you may have had 20,000 years ago and the desire to sell all your belongings to finance your next exploration.
