At present, the only other review about it is a little harsh: she does talk about what she eats on the trip, but doesn't spend a quarter of the book on it. I imagine that if you spend all day paddling an inflatable kayak, you probably think a lot about what you get to eat that night. Admittedly, she goes into great detail about the procedural aspects of a long endurance adventure: her route, the weather conditions, what she sees, where she camps, what she eats, how she slept, and so on. You will either appreciate this or not. It will either help you imagine being in that place yourself, or it won't. For me it worked really well. Well-told, pleasant, introspective, evocative.

2013 Gold Winner IBPA Ben Franklin Awards In a memoir remarkable for its quiet confidence and acute natural observation, the author ofPaddling Hawaii andPaddling My Own Canoe begins with her decision, at age 60, to undertake a solo, summer-long voyage along the southeast coast of Alaska in an inflatable kayak.Paddling North is a compilation of Sutherland's first two (of over 20) such annual trips and her day-by-day travels through the Inside Passage from Ketchikan to Skagway. In 22 years she encountered over 30 bears, four wolves, and hundreds of whales. Her lifelong philosophy, "Go simple, go solo, go now," is illustrated in this reflection-filled story of kayaking adventure. Includes maps, illustrations, and the author's camp food recipes.
