2017., General, Collins Call No: QWF Bio D674b Edition: First edition. Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: Filming the reality documentary television series Boundless, Simon Donato has raced thousands human-powered kilometres across the globe - from the frigid tundra of Iceland to the searing heat of the Sahara, journeys that strip away the regular trappings of life and pit us against ourselves and the natural world. There are no modern conveniences to lean on as crutches, and every metre gained is earned through both physical and mental effort. Donato details the quest for adventure and the opportunities to test ourselves in ways that we aren't able to in our lives very much anymore. He takes you on an adventure-filled journey around the globe and shows how you can apply his lessons and experience to your everyday life. Donato, who has a PhD in geology, has travelled extensively to race and explore the planet. He also runs his oatmeal company, Stoked Oats. He splits his time between Canmore, Alberta, and his Long Trek Ranch in Sheenboro, Quebec.

2023., Timeless Ways Click to access digital title. Summary Note: Woniya Thibeault wasn't looking for an adventure of such magnitude, but when the opportunity to participate in Alone: Season 6 fell into her lap, she couldn't say no. Never Alone is the story of that journey. Dropped into the Arctic wilderness, as winter descended, Woniya intended not only to survive, but to thrive. With only a few tools and meager resources, she would need her survival skills, quick wits, and whole heart to make it through. In her debut memoir Never Alone: A Solo Arctic Survival Journey, Woniya shares how months of starving by herself in the Arctic wilderness brought more healing than suffering, and led to a deep sense of belonging and peace. Her story affirms the incredible strength of the human spirit and shows us that strength comes in many surprising forms. Never Alone's message is one of inspiration and learning to trust in ourselves and the land around us; embracing the wild and being wholly and beautifully human, flaws and all. Never Alone will take you on an Arctic journey through challenges and triumphs, joys and heartbreaks, and leave you inspired and wanting more.
