John Baldwin and Linda Bily join me now. They’re accomplished photographers and adventurers who’ve chronicled their travels in a gorgeous new book, Soul of Wilderness: Mountain Journeys in Western BC and Alaska. It features their amazing photographs of the landscape in this part of the world, as well as narrate their adventures through the Coast Mountains. They also reflect on the wilderness and how it does have a soul, and what that might teach us about the past, the present, and perhaps instruct us about the future.

John Baldwin grew up in Vancouver, and for over forty years has completed numerous ascents and pioneered many remote long ski traverses.
