Cold Summer Wind II: 20 Years of Canoe Camping North of 60
Cold Summer Wind takes the reader down three of the major rivers of Canada’s vast barren lands –
- The entire 920 miles of the Kazan River system from Snowbird Lake to Baker Lake, then out through Chesterfield Inlet into Hudson Bay.
- The Elk River and the Thelon River, through the heart of the Thelon Game Sanctuary
- The wild and seldom-traveled Back River, from Muskox Rapids to within ninety miles of Chantrey Inlet on the Arctic Ocean, in the land of the midnight sun.
This is an action book! And action the Kleins had, shooting through boiling rapids and swirling white water, or while bucking high seas on some of the larger lakes.
In Cold Summer Wind, the author shares the sights and sounds, the excitement, the danger…and the unforgettable slendor of Canada’s far north:
- The phenomenon of mirages and the Ross Light
- The migrations of the Barren Lands caribou
- The Barren Ground grizzly
- Tundra wolves
- Muskoxen
- Chesterfield Inlet tides
- Ferocious insects
- Caught in a whirlpool
- The Old North Trail
- The King of the Barrens
- Flora and fauna
- The Legendary John Hornby
- Missionary of the Barrens, Joseph Buliard, O.M.I.
