Download or read book Snapshots From the Past written by Jane Bryant and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-09-22 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Snapshots From the Past: A Roadside History of Denali National Park and Preserve Visitors come to Denali National Park and Preserve for many reasons some to see spectacular scenery and the continent's highest peak, some to see wildlife, and some for a wilderness experience. In addition, there is the cultural story to discover, since humans have been a part of this landscape for thousands of years. Prehistoric hunter - gatherers roamed the hills, intent on providing food for their families; explorers trekked through the area making maps, prospectors and miners searched for valuable minerals, and park visitors have sought inspiration, education, and recreation. Travelers on the long and winding park road view a snapshot in time, of life today, but the road passes sites that go back in time, rich in history. This book presents snapshots of the past and tells stories about the sites, providing the perspective of decades. The book is arranged to follow the park road from east to west, from the park entrance to Kantishna, 92 miles away. There are few mileage markers to assist in locating sites. Instead.

Download or read book Rhythm of the Wild written by Kim Heacox and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-04-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Kim Heacox, the acclaimed author of The Only Kayak and John Muir and the Ice That Started a Fire, comes Rhythm of the Wild, an Alaska memoir focused on Denali National Park. Music runs through every page of this book, as do stories, rivers and wolves. At its heart, Rhythm of the Wild is a love story. It begins in 1981 and ends in 2014, yet reaches beyond the arc of time. Author and mountaineer Jonathan Waterman has called Heacox “our northern Edward Abbey.” In this book we find out why. We hitchhike with Kim through Idaho, camp on the Colorado Plateau, and fly off the sand cliffs of Hangman Creek with a little terrier named Super Max, the Wonder Dog. We meet Zed, the Aborigine; Nine Fingers, the blues guitarist; and Adolph Murie, the legendary wildlife biologist, who dared to say that wolves should be protected, not persecuted. Kim also reprises in this book his friend Richard Steele, a beloved character from The Only Kayak. Some books are larger than their actual subject—this is one. Part memoir, part exploration of Denali’s inspiring natural and human history, and part conservation polemic, Rhythm of the Wild ranges from funny to provocative. It’s a celebration of—and a plea to restore and defend—the vibrant earth and our rightful place in it.

Book Synopsis Valued Landscapes of the Far North by : Eugene Joseph Palka
Download or read book Valued Landscapes of the Far North written by Eugene Joseph Palka and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2000 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Valued Landscapes of the Far North blends cultural, historical, and physical geographies of Denali National Park for an insightful and humanistic perspective of Alaska's pristine national park and the "visitor experience" there. This illustrated book explores human-environmental interactions, shows how applied historical and cultural geography can help address environmental and management concerns, and looks at Denali as a therapeutic landscape, capable of enhancing a combination of physical, mental, and spiritual healing. Palka employs the concept of place as the integrating theme in his quest to better understand this important biosphere reserve, whose preeminence also stems from its popularity as a distant, wild, and scenic national park and its symbolic value as a vast, untouched wilderness in America's last frontier. His innovative methodology incorporates perspectives from the "detached outsider" to the "immersed insider" to develop a greater understanding of the visitor experience. He focuses on the most distinguishing characteristics of the park from a visitor's perspective and how these features contribute to a visitor's sense of place--while reinforcing the enduring spirit of Denali.

When they did arrive, it was to chase after Denalis abundant game supply and placer gold in the Kantishna mining area. Only a handful of renegades made attempts on the peak at the turn of the century. Setting off with two thermoses of hot chocolate and six donutsand a 14-foot spruce pole to set on the summitthe Sourdough Expedition reached the mountains north peak in 1910. Today, Denali draws over a thousand climbers each year, and the park provides a safe haven for wildlife and a beautiful natural playground for other backpackers and explorers.
