Wild Shore: Exploring Lake Superior by Kayak
荒野:皮划艇探索苏必利尔湖
Greg Breining
格雷格· 布雷宁
Travel/Sports A true story of adventure and a two-year quest to navigate the greatest of the Great Lakes. "One day, I paddled a sea kayak. All graceful lines and curves, the hull carved the water with barely a whisper and turned at the touch of a paddle. How does it feel to travel days on end with no fixed schedule? What happens to your sense of distance when every mile is earned by a thousand strokes of the paddle? A plan began to form as I imagined paddling on and on, never having to turn back." Lake Superior's windswept rock, clear water, and wooded shores make it one of the most stunning landscapes in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Ontario. Over two years, sportsman, writer, and world traveler Greg Breining set out to circle this great lake by kayak, a means of travel that allowed him to visit the lake's places of rare beauty and solitude, experience its wildly varied moods, and see its remote historic sites and isolated communities. Wild Shore is a tale of outdoor adventure, odd characters, humorous stories, and quiet reflection. Wild Shore is also a story of the men and women who have lived along Lake Superior's shores since the Ice Age. An avid history buff, Breining follows the routes of the Ojibwe and the voyageurs. He explores the mix of cultures that created the Lake Superior region we know today. He visits the scientist who studies the last surviving woodland caribou herd on the Superior shore, explores the riddle of the lake's mysterious "Pukaskwa pits," and meets the Ojibwe Coast Guard captain who attempted to save the ill-fated cruise ship Grampa Woo. Illustrated throughout with the author's striking photographs, Wild Shore will be a welcome book to those who love the beauty of Lake Superior, to adventurers, and to armchair travelers everywhere. Greg Breining is the author of many books, including Minnesota (1997) and Return of the Eagle (1994). His writing has alsoappeared in Sports Illustrated, Audubon, International Wildlife, and Minnesota Monthly. He is the managing editor of Minnesota Conservation Volunteer and lives in St. Paul.

旅行/体育冒险的真实故事,以及为期两年的探索大湖区之旅的追求。“有一天,我划着一艘海上皮划艇。所有优美的线条和曲线,船体几乎没有窃窃私语地划着水,轻轻一碰便转过身来。没有固定的行程,连续几天旅行感觉如何?会发生什么?划桨一千英里就能赢得一英里,这对您的距离感产生了什么?我想像着不断地划桨,就开始形成一个计划,而不必回头。” 苏必利尔湖蜿蜒曲折的岩石,清澈的海水和茂密的海岸使之成为明尼苏达州,威斯康星州,密歇根州和安大略省最迷人的景观之一。两年多来,运动员,作家和环球旅行家格雷格·布雷宁(Greg Breining)出发乘皮划艇环绕这个大湖,这种旅行方式使他得以游览湖泊 的稀有美感和孤独之地,体验其千变万化的心情,并欣赏其偏远的历史遗迹和偏僻的社区。荒野海岸是一个户外冒险,奇特人物,幽默故事和安静反思的故事。自从冰河时代以来,在苏必利尔湖沿岸一直生活着的男人和女人,《荒野海岸》也是一个故事。布雷宁(Breining)是一位狂热的历史爱好者,沿着奥吉布韦(Ojibwe)和旅行者的路线前进。他探索了创造我们今天所知的苏必利尔湖地区的文化融合。他拜访了研究超级海岸上最后一个幸存的林地驯鹿牧群的科学家,探索了湖中神秘的“ Pukaskwa坑”的谜团,并遇到了试图拯救命运多f的游轮Grampa Woo的奥吉布韦海岸警卫队队长。整个作者的插图 令人惊叹的照片,《狂野海岸》将是一本欢迎那些热爱苏必利尔湖美景的人,冒险家和各地扶手椅游客的欢迎书。格雷格·布雷宁(Greg Breining)是许多著作的作者,包括明尼苏达州(1997)和老鹰归来(1994)。他的著作还出现在《体育画报》,《奥杜邦》,《国际野生动物》和《明尼苏达州月刊》上。他是明尼苏达州自然保护志愿者组织的执行主编,现居圣保罗。翻译查询:明尼苏达大学出版社 和明尼苏达州月刊。他是明尼苏达州自然保护志愿者组织的执行主编,现居圣保罗。翻译查询:明尼苏达大学出版社 和明尼苏达州月刊。他是明尼苏达州自然保护志愿者组织的执行主编,现居圣保罗。翻译查询:明尼苏达大学出版社
