Publisher's Synopsis
A first-person account of living in the wilds of Alaska as a Mountain Man! The fourth in a series of eight books, much of it written in the wilds.Book 4 - Beyond Wild
I am getting past just survival and doing well, even prospering. I own more than the houseboat can easily haul. Gas gets expensive. I need a new houseboat engine.
There is a homestead and trapline that keeps me in one place now. There are more bear stories and adventures into the wilds, including a 300-mile boat trip looking for mammoth tusks, which has disastrous consequences.
I find where I want to live on the Kantishna River. A river 300 miles long with about five people on it. I hang out in the native village of Nenana, spending a lot of time here.
I get my first computer and learn to build a website. People are looking at the pictures and buying my raw materials and art. This is a chance to make a difference.
Life is beautiful. Life is precious. I Dare to live it.
