We just finished the audio book on our last trip - it's a great read / listen as well. I can't recommend it enough. (One Man's Wilderness, by Sam Keith)

Been following him as my hero a long time. Could not find a better life lived if one wanted to go it alone. A wonderful legacy.

I teach a boat building class as well as a Building Trades and Engineering program. I have had all my students watch both of his videos,"Alone in the Wilderness" part 1 and 2 for the last 15 years.
Dick's innate abilities and precision are very humbling.
I never knew there was a condensed version for free! Thanks.
