Live It Up with Mountain Life
E47 — Chris Larkin
Imagine losing everything in the wilds of the Northwest Territories. That's what happened to Chris Larkin. After living for two winters alone in a cabin in the wilderness, his canoe capsized on the infamous Mountain River. Larkin lost everything except his knife, a couple of matches and the clothes on his back. There were over 200 kilometres between him and civilization. 200 kilometres of relentless, wild terrain. The mighty Mackenzie River lay between him and salvation too. For the next ten days he struggled towards salvation. He made it. But only just. And to this day, he remembers those ten days as the most meaningful of his life. Host: Colin Field.
