he author appears to have done her "wayfinding" (love that term!) in the early 2000's. I was on a family trip to Alaska in 2013, and recognized some of the terrain and sights she talked about.
Each chapter is a different rumination and slice of her life. Although Alaska's not on my top 10 to travel back to, the book sparked my interest in perhaps plotting a journey to the Canadian side, particularly Vancouver.
