From the jacket:

“Canoeing the Mountain transports the reader, bringing them along on a life-changing wilderness canoeing adventure on the wild and beautiful Mountain River in Canada’s Northwest Territories.

Only two days into the 18 day trip, close calls and serious challenges begin for eight friends when one of their four canoes wraps around a rock.

This true adventure campfire tale shares the many joys and trials of an unforgettable trip, while celebrating whitewater canoeing, the wonders of nature, and the paddler’s inner journey.”

We look forward to seeing you all here!
