Описание: Tales of how author transported provisions, built their cabin and spent their honeymoon year on the South Nahanni River. A tale of adventure, strength and natures ever-changing moods and faces. The South Nahanni River of Canadas Northwest Territories has captivated canoeists and mountain adventurers for decades. Imagine flying 4,000 pounds of supplies into the Nahanni River Valley with plans to build a cabin on the shores of the legendary river and live there for a year -- on your honeymoon. That is what John and Joanne Moore did. The author tells how they transported their provisions into the remote area and built their cabin on the South Nahanni River, an area cut off from the outside world by mountain ranges, its only highway the wild river that carves its way through cliffs a thousand feet high. Here the Moores lived for a year, and travelled by canoe, foot, snowshoe and ski in the isolated land they came to love. It was not always idyllic: they fought against loneliness and dangerously cold temperatures, John narrowly escaped being crushed under their food cache and both fell through the ice into the freezing water of the river. An engaging adventure story, this is also the blueprint for anyone wishing to make a wilderness-living dream come true. Included in this edition are the authors thoughts twenty year5s after the adventure as she and John embark on a return visit to the Nahanni with their two children.
