Offers anchorage alaskan tours and adventures. I began my apprenticeship as a guide in 1970, when I came to
. My adult life has been largely shaped by the wilderness, and the wilderness
has shaped the lives of my wife and children (now grown, and accomplished
wilderness ers in their own right). My intellectual interests are philosophical,
literary, and scientific, and I have learned that these concerns can be --
should be -- an integral part of the wilderness experience.
When I ended my academic career, I made wilderness guiding my full time job.
I established Sunlight North Expeditions with two clear purposes: First, to
provide only high quality trips in the areas of which I think have
the highest wilderness values. These trips include arctic treks, sea kayaking,
canoeing, and river rafting. The second purpose was to establish an organic
relationship between myself and my environment, and to provide a chance for
my clients to do likewise. I see the wilderness experience as an opportunity
for emotional and intellectual growth. In any case, I know that when I return
from a wilderness experience, my life has somehow been altered for the better.
I try to provide my clients with a trip that will allow them to go through
this process if they so choose. Offers anchorage alaskan tours and
adventures.
