Traveling through Alaska and the Arctic by dogteam leaves no part of one untouched, unseen or unraveled.
In all of its vastness, there is no space or mercy for dishonesty, weakness or trivialities in the arms of Mother Nature, living the extremes of her elements.
Surviving the darkness and pains of our human reality is anyone's story, while our paths are as varied as the colors of earths palette.
This story of survival neither began nor ended here, in the wild Arctic.
Here, it remembered its source, renewed its strength amid gut wrenching humility and heartbreak and eventually found its voice.
I would not be here to tell the story were it not for the best companions I've known in this lifetime; my dogs.
