Three Seasons in the Wind: 950 Kilometres By Canoe Down Northern Canada's Thelon River

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. Five route maps, tips on wilderness meal planning and preparation, and a detailed travel itinerary provide essential information for anyone contemplating such a trip. "This book succeeds through its unpretentious and honest description of a journey well taken. The concurrent use of diary entries from both of the Pitts gives the narrative a nice balanced feel." -- Clyde Patrick
