Carolyn Highland is a writer, teacher, and outdoor enthusiast whose work has appeared in Outside, Backcountry Magazine, The Ski Journal, and SKI Magazine. She is the author of Out Here: Wisdom from the Wilderness and the essay collection The Full Range: Essays from a Life Outside. When she isn’t teaching fifth graders about metaphors and multiplication, she is usually found doing endurance sports in the mountains or devouring a good book. Highland’s writing is celebrated for its ability to articulate the subtle shifts in identity that occur in the wild. She lives in Anchorage, Alaska, with her partner, Andy, and their cat, Spruce.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Carolyn Highland's 41 essays follow a life shaped by backcountry skiing, trail running and mountain landscapes, and by the questions carried into them.In The Full Range, outdoor experience is both subject and lens. Highland writes about days in deep snow, miles on foot and time alone in mountain country, but the essays keep returning to the rest of life that travels with her. Relationships shift. Expectations change. The reasons for going outside change too.Rather than presenting adventure as an escape from ordinary life, Highland pays attention to the ways the two remain entangled. Physical effort can sharpen a thought without resolving it. A familiar landscape can look different after loss or change. What once felt like achievement can become a way of asking a harder question.These essays sit within contemporary nature writing and women's outdoor literature rather than guidebook or instructional territory. They are grounded in movement through wild places, but their real subject is how a life keeps being revised by experience.
