I will always have a love for my birthplace, the Minnesota River Valley, but a new land of adventure was beckoning me. I was not interested in renting or owning a small portion of property, and that was all I could afford in Minnesota. I saw the last frontier on Earth, Alaska, and knew I could make a new life there. With having the freedom to breathe, to make a new life free from restrictions of movement. To feel like I was no longer tethered. The year was 1984, I had to take the first steps in making my dreamland come true. I had to find the piece of land I wanted to own and live on, so that I could stake my claim. One day, a friend informed me that there were two federal land areas open for homesteading. The very next day, I found my way into the federal land office in Anchorage, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). I told the woman working at the reception desk that I was interested in learning more about claiming a federal homestead. I picked up every folder, brochure, and form they had pertaining to filing for a homestead. The next year, after careful planning and preparation, I set out with my son Dan to start the journey of securing my dreams of the future. Alaska Wilderness Adventure documents the first step of my lifelong journey. It is a true story of survival-ism, the trials and errors we faced in the extreme wilderness, and our triumph over mastering our goals. There were many laughs, and many moments of uncertainty, but in the end, it was a successful piece of history.
