Paddlenorth : adventure, resilience, and renewal in the Arctic wild / Jennifer Kingsley. by Kingsley, Jennifer. Greystone Books/David Suzuki Foundation, [2014] Call #: 797.122 K55p Subjects Kingsley, Jennifer -- Travel.   Canoes and canoeing -- Back River (N.W.T. and Nunavut)   Canada, Northern -- Description and travel.   Back River (N.W.T. and Nunavut) -- Description and travel. ISBN:  9781771640350 1771640359 Description:  231 p. : ill., maps ; 23 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references. Summary:  "Paddlenorth tells the riveting story of Jennifer Kingsley's 54 day paddling adventure on the Back River, in the northern wilderness of the subarctic, as she and her five companions battle raging winds, impenetrable sea ice, and treacherous rapids. The perils include rising tensions among the group, but these are tempered by grizzly sightings, icy swims, and the caribou's summer migration. Woven through this spellbinding narrative are the harrowing accounts of earlier explorers, some of whom perished, but whose traces along the river warn us against romantic notions of the wild. Paddlenorth paints an indelible portrait of the spectacular northern landscape and eloquently explores what wilderness means to us."--From publisher. Genre:  Travel memoirs.
