Small Feet, Big Land: Adventure, Home, and Family on the Edge of Alaska by Erin McKittrick
Exploring the Changing Coast of Wild Alaska—at Toddler Speed. After walking thousands of miles through harsh and beautiful wilderness, adventure trekker Erin McKittrick and her husband Hig now must adjust to the short attention span—and even shorter legs—of a toddler, in addition to a newborn baby, while surveying on foot Alaska’s rapidly changing coastline.
Join author Erin McKittrick and her family for a book reading and slideshow presentation of stunning photos of their life in Alaska, as well as a gear demo.
Erin and Hig’s journey from Seattle to the Aleutians is chronicled in her first book, A Long Trek Home: 4,000 Miles by Boot, Raft, and Ski , and in their film Journey on the Wild Coast. They have been featured in The New York Times, Anchorage Daily News, KUOW, KING 5 News, and much more.
