The Boreal Forest of
Northern Canada is a vast tract of wilderness stretching from the
Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific. It is home to moose and beaver,
crisscrossed by rivers and lakes and frost-free for only about three
months of the year. Stroud intentionally tips his canoe in mid-stream
and crawls from the icy waters onto shore where he does a quick
inventory of his supplies. A handful of cashews and beef jerky, a
solitary match, a multi-tool and 50 lbs of camera equipment to document
the next seven days in the bush.
