About This Book
When Dolores Cline Brown moved to the Yukon in 1953 to share a remote wilderness life with her new husband, outfitter, trapper and guide Louis Brown, she brought along nearly two tons of baggage, including antique furniture and 42 pairs of shoes, and some decidedly unrealistic expectations. It didn't take long for the one-time secretary to shed her city ways and adapt to the beauty and danger of her new life. Timeless Trails of the Yukon regales the reader with the sometimes gripping, often humorous tales of her encounters with grizzly bears, Indian guides, client hunters, tourists, and the wilderness itself over more than two decades. In it she offers an appealing glimpse of a wilderness lifestyle she came to love.
