On Arctic Ground: Paddling the wilds of NW Alaska

Join The Mountaineers for a multimedia exploration of the wild rivers in Alaska's National Petroleum Reserve on Thursday, November 15 at 7 pm. Experience Alaska's frontier with video, audio recordings and still images presented by an Alaska-based author and adventurer, Debbie S. Miller, as she shares stories from the largest single unit of public lands in the United States.

Based on Miller's newly-released book, On Arctic Ground: Tracking Time Through Alaska's National Petroleum Reserve, (Mountaineers Books 2012) the presentation will highlight scenes and moments from the 37 years Miller has spent traveling, whitewater canoeing and exploring Alaska's northwestern wilderness. She will sign books after her presentation. MORE.
