ok, i am obsessed. aside from his craftsmanship, dick proenneke has some classic quotes…many of which i often here from my grandfather. my favorite? ‘this lake changes personality quickly…just like a woman. all smiles one minute, then dancing with a temper-tantrum the next.’

“”Alone in the Wilderness” is the story of Dick Proenneke living in the Alaska wilderness. Dick filmed his adventures so he could show his relatives in the lower 48 states what life was like in Alaska, building his cabin, hunting for food and exploring the area…”

relax…and enjoy. there’s more parts on youtube.
