Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The river was the clearest, purest water I had ever seen flowing over rocks. It had been forty-six degrees, and the Arctic sun did not seem to shine so much as to strike. The water was refrigerant, and I felt relief against the temples. #2 I camped next to the Salmon River in Alaska. The sun had been up for fourteen hours, and the river had hours to go before it set. It was a good campsite, and the river was a fishing site. #3 The salmon in the Salmon River have been fished out, but the grayling remain undisturbed. We fish for them, and in nine minutes, we have five. They are seventeen, eighteen inches long. We clean them in the Kitlik, with care that all the waste is taken by the stream. #4 The myth of Alaska is that there is a fish on every cast, a moose behind every tree. But the fish and the moose aren’t there. People go out with high expectations, and are disappointed.
