Ebook About Two by sea: A couple rows the wild coasts of the far northJill Fredston has traveled more than twenty thousand miles of the Arctic and sub-Arctic-backwards. With her ocean-going rowing shell and her husband, Doug Fesler, in a small boat of his own, she has disappeared every summer for years, exploring the rugged shorelines of Alaska, Canada, Greenland, Spitsbergen, and Norway. Carrying what they need to be self-sufficient, the two of them have battled mountainous seas and hurricane-force winds, dragged their boats across jumbles of ice, fended off grizzlies and polar bears, been serenaded by humpback whales and scrutinized by puffins, and reveled in moments of calm.As Fredston writes, these trips are "neither a vacation nor an escape, they are a way of life." Rowing to Latitude is a lyrical, vivid celebration of these northern journeys and the insights they inspired. It is a passionate testimonial to the extraordinary grace and fragility of wild places, the power of companionship, the harsh but liberating reality of risk, the lure of discovery, and the challenges and joys of living an unconventional life.Book Rowing to Latitude: Journeys Along the Arctic's Edge Review :
This unusual book is somewhat about rowing, but really more about finding a path through life when your desires and goals don't fit neatly into the standard suburban saltbox. The stories she tells about her travels are interesting - after all, she's been to some unusual places and done some unusual things - but what has stuck with me more is the sense of someone with the desire to live the life that has been right for her. Avalanche rescue and summertimes spent rowing through the Arctic Ocean aren't for everyone, but the larger lesson that it's ok to follow your own heart is universal. I'm not a rower and truly, I'm not much of a water person. I can barely doggy paddle, but I picked up Jill Fredston's Rowing to Latitude because my sense of adventure is easily satisfied by the turn of pages. I hoped for a book which would give me a peak at the Arctic and its animals without having to suffer its chill and biting winds. I was satisfied on that count as this description of her journey from Seattle to Skagway Alaska describes:The sun reappeared shortly after Petersburg. In celebration, we stopped uncharacteristically early on the end of Cape Fanshaw, a low-lying peninsula that protrudes into Frederick Sound. Though shiny, sculpted pebbles spoke of frequent waves, the sea was docile that day. As soon as we landed, we began to turn in circles, like chickens on a rotisserie, binoculars and cameras in hand. All around us were humpback whales, at least twenty-five of them, spouting geysers of spray, swimming with gentle undulations of their dorsal fins, leaping into clear sky, and slapping the water with their fifteen-foot side flukes and broad, notched tails. A mother and clad eased by, their sides touching. Only a hundred yards away, a forty-foot whale repeatedly torpedoed free of the water, twisted sideways in midair, and landed with a cannonlike explosion. Another whale, closer to shore, continuously and deliberately beats its tail against the water like a gong.Jill Fredston was a competitive rower in college, she is an environmentalist and an avalanche expert with her husband Doug Fesler. Together they spend their summers engaging in mind boggling Arctic trips. Jill rows while her husband Doug paddles in a kayak. This works well for them as it provides them with a good 360 view with Jill rowing backwards and Doug facing forward.Rowing to Latitude is a memoir giving the reader a glimpse of the forces that shaped Fredston's life, her philosophy as well as following along on her amazing journeys. We are introduced to some of the Inuit people who she meets on her journeys, we admire the wildlife and are scared by bears during the night. Jill takes the reader through some truly scary moments she has had in her boat and we witness some extraordinary sights as a whale suspended in an iceberg high above their heads by Spitsbergen Island.For those who are fond of the environment and love tales of travel and adventure Rowing to Latitude is a great book to read Read Online Rowing to Latitude: Journeys Along the Arctic's Edge Download Rowing to Latitude: Journeys Along the Arctic's Edge Rowing to Latitude: Journeys Along the Arctic's Edge PDF Rowing to Latitude: Journeys Along the Arctic's Edge Mobi Free Reading Rowing to Latitude: Journeys Along the Arctic's Edge Download Free Pdf Rowing to Latitude: Journeys Along the Arctic's Edge PDF Online Rowing to Latitude: Journeys Along the Arctic's Edge Mobi Online Rowing to Latitude: Journeys Along the Arctic's Edge Reading Online Rowing to Latitude: Journeys Along the Arctic's Edge Read Online Jill Fredston Download Jill Fredston Jill Fredston PDF Jill Fredston Mobi Free Reading Jill Fredston Download Free Pdf Jill Fredston PDF Online Jill Fredston Mobi Online Jill Fredston Reading Online Jill FredstonDownload PDF Home For Christmas: A Finding Home Christmas Novel By Carly Marie
