Walking the Yukon: A Solo Trek Through the Land of Beyond

Leaving Skagway, Alaska, in June 1990, Townsend followed the footsteps of the Klondike goldrushers across the Yukon's rugged mountains, wild rivers, and muskeg swamps. Focusing on the Yukon's history, geology, and wildlife, Townsend finds reminders of the gaunt men chronicled by Robert Service almost a century ago. 15 illustrations.
