My idol in life is Richard Proenneke. This man captures his attempt to live in the Alaskan Wilderness in three, hour long documentaries. What this man could do with hand tools and a pile of logs is beyond my comprehension. His cabin in the woods is no house, it is instead a work of beauty. For some thirty odd years this man lived in the Alaskan wilderness, cutting himself an existence through the white spruce of an untouched land. Dick did not come back to the cilivized world until the harsh Alaskan winters forced him to at the age of eighty two.
